We have only been in school for two days, and for two days in a row, your kiddos have gotten to "kiss their brains!"
In our classroom, we tell each other over and over again that "we can do hard things!"  When we all work really hard and succeed at doing something that we've never done before, we celebrate with a special song.  You can listen to the song, "Kiss Your Brain" by Dr. Jean, below. 


For a fun family moment, grab your first grader and have him/her sing along and show you the motions!
Today, the frog room friends got to kiss their brains for learning the routine of writing workshop and then writing independently for almost 30 minutes...on the second day of school! WOW!  When everyone had finished working, we met together in front of the smartboard to congratulate one another, sing our song, kiss our brains, and share a sweet treat! 
I am so proud of this new group of kiddos already!

Mrs. Nelson....
You are wonderful at what you do! You started this blog when Jace was in first grade and did a great job, only to continue expanding and learning more. Thank you so much for sharing our children with us on the web and teaching them how to safely use and enjoy the internet for the right reasons. You are amazing!!!
Thank you,
Angie Fenlon
