Ribbit...Ribbit...

Ribbit, Ribbit!

Last Friday, we were very excited to welcome Cooper to our classroom!

Cooper is a green frog that Lily and her dad found in their backyard. He will be visiting for a couple weeks until he is released back into his natural habitat. He is actually a very quiet, well-behaved visitor.

Cooper is fun to watch. He swims and floats around. 

And he loves to eat crickets!

The students and I are enjoying our time with our new friend!

Week one is done!

Wow! What a great first week we had in 2-B!

The Happy Campers and I shared important information about our hobbies, interests, and families during show-n-tell. We learned a lot about each other and what we have in common.

We also spent time discussing classroom routines and procedures, as well as, class rules. We practiced where to go in a fire drill and how to sign out for the bathroom. We even squeezed in some extra recess outside because boy, was it hot!

These Happy Campers sure are hard workers. We made it through a few universal screenings and pre-tests, which take a lot of patience and stamina. The students sure tried their best!

I look forward to a GREAT year ahead!
