Swimming into GLIDES Week2

We are still gathering research about pool safety and we're moving slowly into water park and beach safety. THANK YOU to Jaclyn for all her help with the ELMO and the Image software!!! That will be so helpful to me even when GLIDES is done. I hope to learn as many new things as I can in this short amount of time....

Students have been BLOGGING! Yes first graders are blogging.... They seem to like seeing their words on the internet. We could do this for nine weeks and get so much out of it....but we're in a crunch time, so we'll do the best we can.

Next week we need to do our final project with water safety and move into bicycle safety.

End of Week 1

Hi everyone! What a week! I have been getting along okay...I think. I need to thank Ms. Moran for coming in on Tuesday to help me get off on the right foot. I have had my kids do some gathering of information about their topic. Unfortunately, due to Early Release I only had 11 kids in my class yesterday. It would not have made any sense to go on. Therefore, today we are going to compose a graphic organizer on Kidspiration and print them out. We are also going to take a look at Destiny Quest. I would appreciate any ideas/planning info that I should do for next week! Have a great weekend, Jill :)

First Day

Hello everyone!

Very busy morning. Introduced GLIDES to first grade and then brainstormed what they know.
Used Kidspriration to make a web and printed them out. Students said they liked working with a partner and some said they we not happy having to share the computer. All students were happy about using color and pictures in their web.

Thanks to Susannah for helping us so much!
