Our school-wide theme this year is B.E.A.R: Be Excited About Reading! We are all excited about reading in our classroom. As I have said to many parents and students: Reading is First Grade and First Grade is Reading. It's a BIG goal in first grade to become (better) readers! The second graders kicked off our theme during our school-wide meeting last Thursday. They did a dance with their favorite books set to music--the video that inspired this dance can be viewed on our school's website: www.csdvt.org/ums. It's a catchy tune!
Students will be making bear t-shirts in art class soon to go along with our theme. We will also be having a B.E.A.R. day very soon, and students will be invited to bring a favorite bear to school! More details to come. We're excited about reading at UMS!
