I have truly enjoyed implementing the first unit of Project Success in each first grade class! After collecting some preassessment data, I have introduced strategies for auditory focus and auditory memory. We have practiced using our eyes as well as our ears to listen, and we have discussed how to focus on the person speaking. We played a fun game called "I went to the store..." to help us remember what others have said. We also used some challenging mazes to talk about and practice perseverance.
The first grade teachers continue to work with students on these important skills throughout the week. Next week, our topic will be visual memory for which students will practice remembering details that they see.
