We're SO sorry to keep you waiting for a Blog post, but we were experiencing some technical difficulties with our Blog. We are full swing into our rituals and routines and everyone is adjusting wonderfully to our classroom life. We have been very busy understanding where things go, what to do and when to do it, and we are learning, learning, learning. It's our job to help guide the students to become independent, self-directed learners and that's what we are doing at this time. Here are some tips for helping your student become and independent Kindergartener:
1. Drop them off in the car loop and let them walk inside.
2. Create a good-bye routine with your student, discuss it with them, and stick to it. (example: Tell them to have a great day, 1 hug, 1 kiss, and then walk away)
3. Let them carry their backpacks so they have ownership of it.
Stay tuned for an upcoming post on Reader's and Writer's Workshop later in the week!
P.S. Don't forget to check the blue Communication folder on a daily basis.
Welcome to the class blog for Ms. Pomeroy and Mrs. Sambito's Second Grade class at Chets Creek Elementary. We are looking forward to an exciting year "walking on the wild side!"

A Farm-tastic Year!
Hello new Kindergarteners! We are getting very excited for our year to start! We are busy getting everything ready to learn and play this year. Make sure that you are reading a lot of books before school starts... and spend lots of time playing, too!
We can't wait to see all of you at Orientation on August 20th at 8am!
