Read / Write / Explore Time

I wanted to give you a peak into the classroom during Read/Write/ Explore time.  The children are offered choice in reading, writing, word work and math.  We will be adding iPads and laptops to the mix this week.
We also have a popular Create/Science station. If you have anything that we could use during this time I'd love to borrow them or hear about them!

For the first month or so I am out with the children observing and getting to know them as people and learners.  After this, I will be teaching Guided Reading during this time and Ms. Dana and hopefully parent helpers will assist the children's learning. Check out the pictures below.
