Be Brave!

Today we talked about what rules are important to have in the classroom.  One on our list says:
Be Brave!

You may be wondering why that is on our list.  We talked about how our brains react and keep us from learning when we fear things.  And we have lots of Hopes and Dreams to accomplish, and there is no time to waste!

Here are some examples of being brave in Kindergarten:

•  Joining a group that is playing
•  Trying to do a job even though you have never done it before
•  Keep trying when something is hard to do
•  Saying good bye to mom, dad, brother, sister
•  Asking for help if you need some
•  etc.

The complete list of our classroom rules will come home next Tuesday after we have had a chance to officially commit to them as a class.

 Look at this beautiful line on the 5th day of school!


Brave architects working together!


We focused really hard and observed our crab apple tree in the summer.


This is a REALLY HARD puzzle!  These brave Kindies worked over 20 minutes to put it together with very little help.  They never gave up!  How brave!


It is brave to work together with a new friend and agree on a tower design!
