Wow, we are group of characters this year! The kids are already well-acquainted with each other and more than comfortable in the classroom.
We are into our second chapters of both Island of the Blue Dolphins and Matilda. The kids are actively engaged with the stories. The two books will be our primary literature studies for the first six or so weeks of school. Math will continue to review materials from late last year and assess where we need to focus our studies. Social studies has us looking at maps and mapping skills before we head off into early settlers in pre-California. We'll jump into science tomorrow and look at the equipment we'll be using during the school year and their safe applications.
I hope that each of you received the letter that I sent home with the kids yesterday. I'll be sending home a good deal of information from the school on Monday regarding insurance, after school programs, etc. Look for the bright orange folder!
Respectfully, Mr. Bryant
