Hopes and Dreams

Over the past week our class has been working on developing hopes and dreams for the school year. We read books about characters who have big dreams and high hopes and work hard to achieve their goals. We also spent time creating lists of dreams that we might have both for school and our lives outside of school. Each student came up with one hope and dream for this school year and we are working on putting them all into a book to show at Open House! This week we are discussing how our school and classroom rules can help us to achieve our hopes and dreams (if a classmate has the hope and dream of becoming a better reader then following rules like "use a quiet voice" and "help others" could help that friend to meet their goal). The wonderful hopes and dreams generated in our class include becoming a better reader, learning to do harder math, learning to use the computer and ipad in class, learning to hatch chicks (already looking forward to May!), learning to do homework, making new friends, reading more books, and getting better at PE skills. Below are photos of kids showing what their hopes and dreams are!
