YIKES! January is the time of year when our Firsties become busy little readers. It's the time of year I love....no not because of SNOW, but because I see the love of reading in my students. They are always asking to read, read, read. Here is a picture where three friends wanted to read the same book together in a little group without me asking them to do it.<br />

January also brings a time of learning harder words. In both spelling and sight words we have been learning some tricky rules. Here we are playing <i>Headhunters</i> where we have to read the sight word that is stuck to our friend's head. We are not supposed to tell them the word, just read it and write it down silently on our recording sheet. At the end of the game we should be able to tell what word is on our own head. FUN!!</div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Miss Brown and I would like to thank you for coming to Back to School Night and visiting with us. We look forward to being a part of the teacher team with you.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">The children are all settled in and the learning has begun! This year's Firsties are WONDERFUL. We started the year off learning the classroom rules according to <a href="http://www.wholebrainteaching.com/?option=com_k2&id=202&lang=en&view=item&fontstyle=f-larger">Whole Brain Teaching</a> and it has been smooth sailing. Where has WBT been all my career? Any teacher not using it, is missing out. I highly suggest checking it out. There are so many teaching videos to watch on Youtube as well as on the <a href="http://www.wholebrainteaching.com/?option=com_k2&id=202&lang=en&view=item&fontstyle=f-larger">WBT site.</a> Parents may benefit from WBT too.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I actually sent the Kindergarten teachers a THANK YOU email for getting this group so ready for first grade. I am not exaggerating when I say they are WONDERFUL! Wow! The writing is blowing me away. This group loves to write. They add detail and the illustrating is second to none. It's going to be an exciting year. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Our literacy centers are up and running which means we are getting to read with the teacher at the reading table. This is the most important part of the first grade year. Each student gets to read at their level with the teacher and work on skills in centers that reinforce the language arts lessons they have learned. CHECK US OUT!</span><br />

Summer reading IS a good idea no matter what you might be thinking.<br />
<strong>“Children who do not read over the summer will lose more than two months of reading achievement. Summer reading loss is cumulative. By the end of 6th grade children who lose reading skills over the summer will be 2 years behind their classmates.”</strong><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So if any of my incoming Firsties are checking out my blog, get reading little ones! I don't care if you are reading books, magazines, video game directions, box labels or what....just READ something every day. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I can't wait to meet all of you in September.....OK, I can wait because I love summertime, but I am looking forward to meeting you when the time comes. There that's the real truth! I swear!</div>

Time for fun!<span style="font-size: large;">It's a bitter sweet ending to a fabulous year with this group of firsties. This particular group of children have become such good friends and a big piece of my heart has been filled. Today is our last day together even though I always say, "Once a Cialini, always a Cialini". I am so very proud of their accomplishments. They have not only learned a great deal, they have become better little people who care about others. They know the meaning of respecting themselves and other. So often children of this age don't know how to verbalize what respect means, but when you see them showing it each day you know they get it! These firsties get it!</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">So the morning started with a great birthday surprise from a sweetheart and her family so I had to put it on....by the way it's my birthday too.</span><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">And then we HAD to have a dance party. It was disco of course, but then I had a request from Cole to play Michael Jackson. No one believed me when I said I knew the moves to the Beat It video....</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">The rest of the day was a blurr...we were so busy. At the Marsh Awards Assembly, Samantha and Joey M. got awards for their Fire Prevention posters and Cole and Ava got Mileage Club awards for walking over 100 miles this year. WOW! Nothing like seeing pride on a seven year old's face. I will miss these beauties, but at the same time I will enjoy the summer break. Thank you to all the supportive parents this year. I can't do my job well without you! Absecon is the best!!!!!!</span></div>

Our Friendly Neighborhood Helpers unit includes a play about the people in our community that help us when we need it. Absecon is an awesome town where people are friendly and outgoing. It is small enough to have a "downtown", that lucky for us, is close to the school. This means a community walk is part of this unit as well. Here are some photos of both the show and walk.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">We played the DENTISTS and the GARBAGE COLLECTOR'S which in this play it is politically correct to say. Our local ACUA donated our shirts which was so cool. </span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">The whole first grade participated. We had songs about grocers, plumbers, fire fighters, crossing guards, librarians, vets and chefs! The firsties worked very hard learning all the words and the crown loved the performance. We even invited many community members to come see the show especially if their profession was featured.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Our community walk was another fun feature to this unit. We left our school and walked all over town visiting places and getting tours to learn about how these places and workers help us. Check this out.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">While we were on our way to the police station, we saw the ACUA guys collecting the recyclables so we sang our Garbage Truck song form our play to them.

<span style="font-size: large;">As we were walking from Shop Rite to the firehouse, we went by Dr. Keating's office where the windows were open. He is a dentist, so guess what we sang to him.......you got it....out Dentist song from the play. He was thrilled to say the least and wanted to get a copy of the words. Like I said, I could never have planned that awesome moment!</span></div>

These little Firsties are writing How To's and non-fiction articles about topics we love. Since learning happens best when students are actively engaged and participating in the lesson, we got to chew gum in school and try to blow bubbles. How else would we be able to write a How To Blow Bubbles piece....we HAD to have gum, right? Check us out!</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Our second attempt at being informative writers was writing All About pieces. We wrote all about what we learned in science about the sun. We had an opening sentence, followed by 4 facts and then a closing sentence. These turned out to be nice paragraphs.</span></div>

I will keep my opinion to myself about that. I will say I am disappointed it has taken some of my time away from the "fun" stuff in first grade, which includes blogging.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">March came in like a lion and left like a lion this year, but that didn't stop us from enjoying cool things here at school. We had green eggs and ham in celebration of Dr. Seuss' birthday. YUM!!!!</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Later in the month we had an assembly about the history of Hip Hop dance which the children loved. We loved it so much that we incorporated the event into our writing the next day. We wrote about our opinions of the show with reasons and evidence. I love when unexpected lessons just slide into the week. They usually make for the best learning.</span><br />

We also made Splat the Cat projects that told our families when we feel loved at home. But my camera battery died, of course. This is a picture of the unit from <a href="http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Love-Splat-Mini-Unit-Math-Literacy-Activities-196723">Cara Carroll</a> if you want it on TPT. It is filled with great activities like all of her units.</div>

<span style="font-family: Times, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: large;">We were rockin' and rollin' all day today since it was the 50th day of school. We started the day by dancing to Barbara Ann from Just Dance Kids (via Youtube) and got a real sense of what 50's music was like. What a warm up for learning! </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Times; font-size: large;">After that, we moved on to making a favorite after school treat form the 50's...root beer floats. YUM! This was research of course so we could write our How To pieces titled....How To Make a Root Beer Float. We wrote it together on chart paper, then everyone made their own piece. Check them out in the hallway at conferences.</span><br />

Rewind.....at the Halloween party I went to take photos of the more than willing posers all dressed in their adorable costumes, when alas the classroom camera battery died....boo! Ah, I brought my iPad to school so I grab it and start shooting. Pose, click, pose, click pose, click and so on. Fast forward....here I sit realizing I cannot get the photos saved on the iPad to load to the blog....waaaaa! There is an option for uploading photos from your phone or android, but not iPad. Am I missing something here? What to do, what to do? If you have any advice shoot me an email. Mcialini@abseconschools.org or mcialini@icloud.com. I will try to figure something out. Sorry you won't get to see the pics yet.<br />

We decided to write How-to pieces and we started the lesson off with making smores. What better way to prepare to tell someone how to do something than to do it yourself first. So off to the teacher's room we went with all our ingredients. We made the smores step by step and discussed the words we would use to describe our actions. We even timed the melting so we would know the number to include in our writing. Finally, we got to EAT them!!!!</span><br />
