Here are the two mini-lessons we did to kick off Reader's Workshop.
You can reinforce these good habits at home when you read with your child :)
WRITER'S WORKSHOP
I-READY TESTING
In a week or so, I'll send home log-in cards so that the kids can work on i-ready lessons at home, too! The website can be accessed on both tablets and computers.
CLASSBUILDING
I shot a video once they were lined up.
Take a look...
BRAIN BREAKS :)
Have some fun and ask your child to do some yoga moves with you!!
Another fun brain break we do is called "Mirror Mirror." Kids work in partners and try their best to copy what they other one is doing. It's really fun and the kids get to move around - exactly what first graders need!!!

4th GRADE BUDDIES :)
The best part is that positive relationships are built across grade levels and reading together helps both the first graders and fourth graders become BETTER readers!!
