| Students are ready to begin the day! |
In class, we began by getting to know each other through teamwork and games.
After recess, we opened up and categorized all the supplies. Later, students had fun "building" using the Kleenex boxes and the paper towels. They used teamwork and perseverance to build a pyramid.
What does perseverance mean?

The tissue boxes are rectangular prisms, while the paper towels are cylinders.
Magnificent balancing work!
Today we also played another teamwork game. Each team was given a stack of index cards. Teams were asked to build the tallest tower. However, in order to use a card, they had to find out one thing they all had in common and write it on the card before it could be added to the structure. Teams worked together and asked a lot of questions.....and build some creative towers!

This educational blog is the centerpiece of our classroom community. It is a wonderful space for sharing and learning together. Here is a link to an article Mrs. Yollis wrote about the benefits of classroom blogging. I hope you'll have a chance to read it before our Back to School Night.
