Welcome to MAC1! We have had a wonderful start to the new school year! The children are great! We have spent this first week getting to know each other and and becoming familiar with the room and new schedule. We have gotten to go to PE, music, art and guidance class! We have also spent time exploring with math manipulatives, and language arts centers. The students have been working in small groups and getting to know each other. They also worked on an art project and did an amazing job! Thank you to everyone who came to Orientation Night! It was very nice to see so many new and familiar faces. I hope we answered your questions and let you know what it is like in MAC1. If you still have questions that were not answered by us or in the packet that was sent home please let us know and we will get back to you as soon as possible. We apologize that we were not able to meet and talk to everyone, but hopefully we will be able meet everyone soon and start putting names with faces. Again, thank you for coming! The students are continuing to do an amazing job. We have started Writers Workshop and they have been able to work with their "writing buddies". They have a lot of good ideas and it is fun to see them get those ideas down on paper! In math we have been reviewing concepts that the students learned last year and getting ready for new concepts. We have also been to all of our specials: art, music, P.E., guidance and library.
