Weekly Notes

It was wonderful to see many of your at BTSN this week. I greatly appreciate the time you took to be here and to absorb all the information thrown your way! For those who could not make it, be sure to check out the BTSN presentation link BTSN Presentation

I am VERY excited about the year ahead. One of the reason I love teaching is building and fostering relationships with my student's families. I deeply believe that open and candid communication between teacher and parent is an imperative part of the learning and growth process for children. Please keep me abreast of celebrations and concerns!

This Weeks High Lights!

• Launching our Energy unit.
• Diving deeper into big numbers, working on building strong estimation skills,  a solid understanding of place value and brushing up on 2 digit by 2 digit and 3 digit by 3 digit addition.
• Finishing our "I am From" poems and viewing the amazing masks that accompany them. If you have not had a chance to check them both out in the hallways, please do, they are fantastic!
• Continuing our discussion and activities around empathy, which will be a theme throughout the year.

What Coming Up!
