First Day of school with WBT classroom model implementation!

OK.....First, I tried to get on livestream, for the web conference and it denied me access for 20 minutes!! STRESS!!  Otherwise the day was wonderful!  Heres how the daily schedule worked out...
First, I started with the rules.. broke each one up into 5 step lesson.  It went pretty fast.  Then, I introduced super speed reading for a minute.  The students loved that!  Follow up the reading with 10 minutes of the reading section of Prove It!  After this, the students are relieved to do a little Oral writing.  I started with a question.  How is your first day of school?  I informed students about mirror and they followed me, with My first day of school was beyond exciting!!  It was beyond exciting BECAUSE Clapper..  I learned about the wacky fun star button. Also, I earned more points than our teacher! This makes me want to come to school everyday!  In conclusion, (zoop)  today was one of my best days!
To introduce Math, I began with super speed Math and follow up with 10 minutes of Prove It!  Finally, the assigned chapter lesson.
universal access, this is where I have my ELL students grouped for instruction.  Finally Science coupled with oral writing.  The day concluded with a ten minute writing
It started like this:
Today I learned about _______and _______.  Many students plugged in even numbers and energy.  It was a great day with some powerful teaching going on.  I am still waiting to introduce the UMH.  I think that tomorrow will be a good day.  I want to be able to thoroughly break down the points.  They were so curious about the mind soccer posters today!!  They can hardly wait!!

  1. Wow! That's very exciting. I am in the process of thinking through my first day in my new, model, WBT classroom. Luckily, I've still got three weeks to get it down!
