Young Authors

This past week, students planned, revised, edited, and published their narrative writing.  It was a wonderful experience for me to listen to them share their writing with their peers!  Here are a few photos from our week:

Positive Behavior School Wide Kick-off

This past week we had an assembly to kick-off our school wide positive behavior expectations; additionally, we have been playing games in Math about missing addends (focusing on making 10), and going through the writing processes to write a narrative.  Here a few photos from our week:

Happy New Year

Welcome Back & Happy New Year!  We are beginning to settle into our routines in room 103 after our winter break.  One challenge I'm currently facing is having enough storage on my phone for photos as well as its battery life.  I'm looking into some options to upgrade; meanwhile, the photos I post might be fairly slim.  Here are a few photos from our week:

 I love watching their excitement as they open their gift from me.

Thank you for being a part of a wonderful first half of the school year!

I am looking forward to watching the students continue to grow during the second half.

Happy 2017!
