Week 2 down.

I'm classing this as week 2 as I have been doing this properly for 2 weeks.  So we use class-class all the time. Teach-okay, the scoreboard is getting better but I forgot to give them the quick treat at end of day. Nso have decided I will appoint one of my kids that love to organize to be scoreboard monitor and check results at 2.30pm so we know.  How's that for utilizing a trait that could drive you nuts.

We start off well in the morning but found Friday to be a really loud day, it was hard to bring the down.  I had about 3-4 kids who just kept going and going.  So will make sure I target their behavior this week and appoint frownies based on level of noise to get this back under control.

I have planned to use Smoothy Bumpy Planet for maths and have a go at The Writing Game.  Have watched a couple of videos with Chris demonstrating in New York and think with a bit of work we can do it.  My lower ones may struggle so may do this when they Re out for phonics to start.

Looking forward to a bit of reading is weekend and get my notes sorted for the week, as I still need a written reminder of when and where to use the teach-okay and rule of the game.

Is making my class lots of fun though.
