Back in the Swing of Things!

I can honestly say that this week finally feels like we are in the swings of things. It definitely took a few weeks to practice routines and learn expectations. We've had the opportunity to use both netbooks and iPads to learn some tools we will use on those. We've finished two MAP tests in the computer lab. We've launched our Daily 5 and CAFE routines in our classroom. Writer's workshop is definitely new and different but something we're working very hard on every day. Multiplication is in full swing! PLants are going and not quite blooming. Compost bags are stinking and rotting. Ew! It's been a busy few weeks and it's only the beginning!
