Welcome to First Grade!!!!

We had a fantastic first day of first grade! Our class/team did a great job listening and sharing about classroom guidelines and our 1st day feelings ( jitters). We read the book First Day Jitters by Julie Danneberg. Just ask them WHO had the most jitters!

It IS going to be an incredible 1st grade year!!!!We are looking forward to day 2!! The first week can be exhausting----for all of us:). Get some rest Team! We will see you tomorrow!

Edcamp GCISD

Today at Edcamp GCISD teachers gathered to collaborate and learn from one another! I'm excited to use Class Flow to push active inspire creations to students. Zondle is a great way to engage students and be able to assess their learning. I am ready to engage my students in Genius Hour where students are free to explore a passion or inquire about something of interest--Wonderopolis is an interesting way for students to inquire! It has been a great day of learning! Thanks to GCISD digital coaches for planning!
