Phoebe has had a great first two months of school! She has the same teacher as last year. Her teacher was able to loop up with her entire class - which made for an easy transition from 1st grade to 2nd grade for the students in her class and her teacher. We were all VERY HAPPY about her having this particular teacher two years in a row. He is excellent, motivated, caring, organized, funny, responsible, honest, and a FANTASTIC teacher! Did I mention we are glad Phoebe gets to have him again?
(Below and above) first day of school pictures...
On the first day of school Phoebe wrote, "I want to learn about math. Next I want to learn about healthy food. Then I want ot learn about money."
Daddy wasn't able to go with the girls on the first day of school because he was out of town for work, so he walked them to their classrooms on the second day of school.
Below, is a flip-flop project that Phoebe completed.
Her class learned some about solar eclipses. The students at her school did not go outside to watch the eclipse, but were able to watch it on t.v. in their classrooms.
Phoebe has been doing great on her spelling tests! She studies the words at school and at home during the week. The spelling tests are taken on the last school day of each week.
Phoebe has reading and math homework every week. There are activities and worksheets to complete each night.
After testing in August to determine placement for levelized Math and Reading groups, Phoebe was placed in the "Above Level" reading group and the "On Level" math group in September. At the end of September Phoebe was doing well enough and progressing quickly enough to be moved to the "Above Level" math group. Way to work hard, Phoebe!
Keep working hard, Phoebe! We are happy to see you succeeding and progressing in school.
