So our journey began today.
Thirty two eager to learn, yet still sleepy fifth graders.
Things that we covered today:
Mr. Hubbard's general rules:
Basic rules
- We raise our hands -- 33 people are in this room therefore it is polite to raise our hands.
- We respect each other INCLUDING OURSELVES
- We are kind to each other.
- We have high expectations for everyone in this class.
We covered some basic procedures that will make the class run smoothly.
For example: Water, pencils, getting up and using the restroom
We will cover more procedures over the next week.
We then took a Mr. Hubbard quiz/test. Students were able to learn more about myself and ask me a few questions.
We also spent some time collecting and collating all of the classroom supplies.
They had singing with Ms. Jones today. She returned to class to inform us we were her only class of the day not to earn an outstanding review for behavior and effort. Therefore we have our first goal for the new school year.
We covered why 10 most likely is the number our arithmetic system is based upon. We reviewed place value for numbers up to a hundred billion.
Students were given examples of how to use their day planner.
Kind regards,
Mr. Hubbard
