We started off the day with our usual circle time; introducing the students to the calendar, checking the weather, singing songs, reading a book and talking about our commitment to learning French. We, then, took a walk around the class introducing each center and talking the rules and the number of students allowed at a time.
Over the course of the week, discuss, review and add to the rules we should follow in any given class and in the various parts of the school. We will then add them to our essential agreement and sign our name to represent our promise to following the rules and codes of conduct.
A few more routines to go through over the course of the week and we'll be set for success! We have our classroom responsibilities to go over and more specialist teachers to be introduced to.
