Goal Time Work

In February I met with all parents to set goals for kids to work on both at school and at home. We have started a 20-30 minute time block right after lunch for kids to work on their individual goals.

It has been so great to see the kids take ownership of their learning during this time. They are hard at work!

As I walk around I see kids:
Reading
(with our fancy new reading glasses) 


Doing Math

 Practicing sight words or spelling

Working with different materials (play-dough/boards/magnets etc)

 Learning new vocabulary

 Practicing their math facts

and working near each one another while still 
focusing on their OWN learning!
This has become my favorite time of the day because the kids are just so invested in their learning, it is a great feeling for a teacher!
