Hey Room 11! Hope you have a great day today.
Hello kidlets!
Sorry I am out today. Think of it as an adventure- exploring other classrooms. If you see any good ideas, bring them back to share tomorrow- we can learn a lot when we spend time with new people, even the little people, sometimes they have the most fun ideas!
I have a little challenge for you today- Random acts of kindness. I can't wait to hear how you go today.
It is kind of exciting to give you the chance to be leaders in the school like this. You could be the best thing to happen to the classes you are in today, I am sure the teachers will be so glad to have you join them and help out today. If you can't be useful, just keep going with your learning below. You are SUPER independent so you will have no troubles. If you need help, ask each other first- look after each other!

WHAT is your communication item?
How does it work? What are the parts? what do they do? How does it help us to communicate?
