We are crew, not passengers. ~EL Education
We are learning all about what it means to be crew. The foundation of our crew is the Fox Creek Habits of Character.
We are contributing to our classroom by keeping it clean and organized. We have begun to discuss strategies in all academic areas and are posting them on our crew walls to remind us of our thinking.Each crew member is special and unique. That is why our yellow tie dye shirts all look different. We have been reflecting on how we can each help our crew. We have begun the discussions of compassion and how we can be kind to each other.
Students enjoyed the opportunity to make their own shirts with the help of our family volunteers. Students were respectful and waited their turn as each friend got a turn to dye their own shirt. What a special day!
We have been singing songs and learning all about each other each day in crew. Students are collaborating in small groups and a variety of partnerships. Students are having courage to lead their crew mates through math lessons, reading discussions, share time at writing and reading aloud during snack time.
Questions to ask:
How are you contributing to your crew?
What are special ways your crew works and/or plays together?
