Send a text [https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/2451765/open_sms] The first days of first grade include introducing rules, routines, procedures, and developing a strong classroom community. We are sharing how we roll out these concepts to our classes and what we have learned about the must-do's to ensure a successful kickoff to the schoolyear ahead.  Music by MFCC [https://pixabay.com/music/search/fun%20upbeat%20background%20music/].

To kick off season 2, we discuss school supply shopping, preparing our classrooms for the new school year ahead, teacher work week meetings, and tasks we try to accomplish to start the school year off right.  Music is by MFCC [https://pixabay.com/music/upbeat-fun-upbeat-background-music-322877/].

Classroom Parties

Send a text [https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/2451765/open_sms] As another school year concludes, we reflect on all our classroom celebrations. We discuss how we plan, include parent volunteers, and set up our parties for success when we have a room full of excited first graders. We've learned a lot about what works and what doesn't and give parents and educators some pro tips along the way.  Music "Positive Morning Vibes" by Universfield.  If you like what you hear, please tap the like and subscribe button, and leave us a review!

Mission Transitions

Send a text [https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/2451765/open_sms] Elementary teachers know that transitions can be intense. From getting the school day started to packing up to go home, students go through dozens of transitions each day. Every time students are asked to get out or put away supplies, rotate centers, or begin the dreaded "quiet" walk in the hallway, teachers have a plan of what it should look like and sound like, but our students usually have other ideas.  Music is Positive Morning Vibes by Universfield.  If you like what you hear, please tap the like and subscribe button, and leave us a review!
