After going over our Whole Brain Teaching Classroom Rules Rap, we talked about Whole Brain Listening...with Pete the Cat. He is so groovy!
Then, I read The Kissing Hand. We compared our school to Chester's School using a T-Chart...
We talked about our first day feelings. This was a great way to validate everyone's attitude about a brand-new school year. They loved making Anchor charts! That is fantastic!
I made new clothespins for my Behavior Log and new magnets for my lunch board. I love these new magnets...I made them with bottle caps from Hobby Lobby. Fun! I also love the little clear round stickers that fit inside the cap over their names which make them look even fancier!
It is going to be a fun, new year in First Grade!!!
Love Pete the Cat listening. What's the whole brain rap?

ReplyDeleteDid you draw your Pete The Ca
I'm doing Pete the cat.
I wish that you could draw me one, but I can't draw.
I really love your Pete The Cat. My preschoolers seems to really respond to him. I hope you don't mind if I use your excellent idea. This may truly get them ready to listen when its circle time or story time.
