đ¤đ Building Friendships & Class Community in Ms. McGurkâs 3rd Grade! đđ¤
During the exciting first week of school, students in Ms. McGurkâs class at North Augusta Elementary focused on developing friendships and building a positive classroom environment! đ
Through collaborative poster projects, students explored and illustrated different ways they can be helpful, kind, and respectful classmates. From sharing supplies to using kind words, their posters reflected the values that will shape a successful and caring classroom community all year long. đď¸đâ¨
This activity supports South Carolina Social Studies Standard 3-1.4, which encourages students to:
"Explain the role of rules and laws in the home, school, and community and the consequences of breaking them."
By identifying helpful behaviors and working as a team, these third graders are learning what it means to be responsible, respectful citizensâstarting right in their own classroom! đđ

đ⨠Spotlight on Literacy in Mrs. Whisnantâs 5th Grade Class! â¨đ
Today, students in Mrs. Whisnantâs class at North Augusta Elementary dove deep into the world of reading comprehension! đ§ đĄ
They kicked off their literacy lesson by reading a fascinating informational text about birds engaging in a surprising behavior known as âanting.â đŚđŞ˛ This curious habit sparked thoughtful discussion and laid the foundation for exploring main ideas and supporting details.
Working together, students then tackled two additional nonfiction passages, applying their analytical skills to uncover the central ideas and explain how supporting details strengthened those ideas. đŹđ
This lesson aligns with South Carolina College- and Career-Ready ELA Standard 5.RI.2, which emphasizes:
âDetermine two or more main ideas of a text and explain how they are supported by key details; summarize the text.â
Our fifth graders showed amazing teamwork and critical thinkingâway to go, Dolphins!

đđ§ Jitter Juice & First Day Feelings in Ms. Andersonâs Class! đ§đ
Ms. Andersonâs 2nd grade class kicked off the school year with a fun and thoughtful activity centered around the book First Day Jitters by Julie Danneberg. đ
After reading the story, students had an open discussion about the feelings that come with the first day of school â from excitement to nervous butterflies â learning that itâs okay to feel a little jittery. To wrap up the story, they created and sipped on âJitter Juiceâ with silly straws to celebrate facing those feelings with confidence and fun! đđ
This engaging activity supports South Carolina ELA Standard 2.RL.5.1: Ask and answer literal and inferential questions to demonstrate understanding of a text; refer to details and examples in a text when explaining what the text says and drawing inferences.
Weâre so proud of our students for starting the year strong, sharing their feelings, and supporting one another. What an awesome first day in 2nd grade!

After reading the story, students had an open discussion about the feelings that come with the first day of school â from excitement to nervous butterflies â learning that itâs okay to feel a little jittery. To wrap up the story, they created and sipped on âJitter Juiceâ with silly straws to celebrate facing those feelings with confidence and fun! đđ
This engaging activity supports South Carolina ELA Standard 2.RL.5.1: Ask and answer literal and inferential questions to demonstrate understanding of a text; refer to details and examples in a text when explaining what the text says and drawing inferences.
Weâre so proud of our students for starting the year strong, sharing their feelings, and supporting one another. What an awesome first day in 2nd grade!

âď¸đď¸ Sensory + Standards = Smiles in Kindergarten! đ§źđ
On Day 2 of Kindergarten, our youngest Dolphins dove into learning with a hands-on, foamy adventure! Students practiced writing their names and the letter âLâ using shaving cream â a fun, sensory-rich way to build fine motor skills and early literacy.
This activity aligns with the South Carolina Kindergarten ELA Standard: K.W.2.2 â Use a combination of drawing, dictating, and writing to compose informative/explanatory texts. Today, they used creative movement and texture to begin mastering letter formation â and had loads of fun in the process!
Weâre off to an amazing start, and our little learners are already making big strides! đŹđ
