End of Year Fun!

The end of the 2012-2013 year is here!  Is every year faster than the last, or is it just me!?  I am curious to learn what other first grade classes will be doing for their end of year celebration.  This year, I'm planning a camping themed party.  I'm bringing my son's pop-up tents, and we're going to make smokes, and tell stories around our "campfire."  I got my ideas from Pinterest, of course! ;)Check out my camping…See More

I love the idea of students working at their own pace on the standards but not sure how our school will be able to figure it out schedule wise. Here is an example: If a k child is reading on 2nd grade level and working on 2nd grade standards he/she should be able to join a class that is working on the standards he needs...that means everyone in the school needs to be doing the same subjects at the same time...how do classes get in their specials, lunch??? Scheduling nightmare! I think it could happen if the child stays right in their own classroom and we continue to do our small grouping like we do but work on the standards.

Thank you Audrey. I am going to be an observer for a little while until I figure out how this works. Do you know anyone doing Customized Learning?
