Happy Fall!!!
Wow! I can not believe it's already October. We have had an exciting and run first month of school :) We have already had some special days that we've celebrated and acknowledged.
- First Day of School - there were a lot of emotions this day! So much excitement and nerves.
- Terry Fox Run - we got to burn our energy running and walking for this event.
- Orange Shirt Day - we read books about accepting each others differences and then decorated our own orange t-shirts.
Spotlight Moments:
Social Skills - The students enjoyed exploring their new classroom, school, playgrounds, peers and staff. They are currently learning the social skills of building new friendships, sharing and initiating conversations with others. There are so many budding friendships happening already.
Social Studies - Currently our class is learning about our own selves and our community. We have noticed that we are all very different and that that is okay :) We look different. We have different interests. And our personalities are different. But together as a class we are an awesome team!
Functional Living Skills - While exploring our new environment, we have been learning all the new routines as well. How we arrive to class after getting off the bus is the first routine we have been learning. We start our day by hanging up all our gear and then going to the bathroom. We come together as a class to have some fun in circle time. We also are learning a new routine around our individual programming with our very own task bins. But it doesn't stop there! We also have routines for snack time and lunch time.
Wow so much learning and it's only been one month! Lots to come this month. Stay tuned :)
