After enjoying a relaxing break and spending two weeks away from each other, it’s important to spend time reconnecting with each other and getting back into the swing of things. Each classroom spent time yesterday visiting parts of the school to practice expectations and routines. Then, in our own classroom we also spent time reviewing routines of our day. Each group chose one daily routine, worked together to decide on important reminders, and then presented the reminders through a poster or a skit.
In order to reconnect with each other we have spent time sharing about our break and our goals for the new year. Students shared “snapshots” of the different activities they did over break, created questions to ask during a Quiz-Quiz-Trade, and completed a classmate Winter Break Bingo. Students will continue participating in class building and team building activities during the week.

Independently, students created New Year’s Resolutions to help them stay focused and finish the second half of the year strong. After creating a goal, they also created a plan on how to best achieve each goal. We have placed these reminders in our binders in order to reflect on them often.
