If you ever need a good story to not only discuss emotions, but also friendship then Strictly No Elephants by @lisamantchev is the book for you! The Ss loved being able to read the emotions on the characters faces and the use of colours for emotions! #1stgrade #DCPS #FSKey

The more time you spend in classrooms the more you realize that one of the most dangerous things you can do to students is coddle them. It may lead to more engagement and more smiles in the short term, but it leads to greater frustration and a lack of self-direction over time.

What’s the best way to prepare for writing at the beginning of the year?? Why learning about ancient writing! From cave paintings, to cuneiform, all the way to hieroglyphs! Guaranteed to get your first graders ready for writing!! #DCPS #1stgrade #writing
