Starting off the year with half the class new is always exciting and a relief at the same time.
I've enjoyed having my Yr 4's knowing how room 8 already runs and being able to straight away support our new Yr 3's. They take more ownership for our class.
Having new Yr 3's brings new challenges and is exciting meeting and getting to know new children (and parents) who I can inspire, support and engage in their learning.
Looking forward to camp! Excited Yr 4's and some scared Yr 3's. This coming camp week will be a stretch zone for some children. Lots of fun to come!!!!!!
Hi Darnie
ReplyDeleteI love that you are so excited about supporting and nurturing your new Y3 class members! This is a real strength of yours and I have no doubt that all those new to Room 8 will soon discover this side to you!
All the best for the remainder of your term!

Hi Darnie
ReplyDeleteIt's always a challenge with half a new class but having our year 4's to guide and support is wonderful! You have already set up and amazing, positive and caring environment in your class. This is definitely a strength of yours! Room 8 will miss your caring and nurturing personality when you leave and so will I. enjoy the rest of your term!

PS - Great job in using the iPod and flip video to record children's learning already!
