First Days in Grade 1

Moving as we learn.

At BHS the Kindergarten students come to school all day so being here for a full day is not something new, but being at school each day is a bit of a change. Starting the year off with a three day week is a nice way to get back into the school routine. I was glad to see that we still had energy as our Friday was winding down. Perhaps my energy was not quite as high as the kids, but I gave it my best shot!

Students will be sharing their voice with you as we reflect on our learning and express ourselves throughout the year. I asked them to think about their first few days as official Grade 1ers . . .

Some sorting and number work.
