The first graders have done a lot the first two weeks to help build our classroom community!
- We read the book Chrysanthemum and ripped her picture each time someone said something unkind. We then talked about how it feels in our lives when someone treats us this way.
- We played Commonality Bingo, looking for another first grader that fits the qualities of a BINGO square (i.e. wearing red, can ride a bike, has a pet, etc.).
- Based on things we had in common with our friends, students got into groups and created commonality superheroes! This was also a great way for us to practice working together.
