Highlight of the Week
Student Raise Money for a Good Cause
Fifth grade students,
Brianna, Emma and Jazmine, organized a school spirit day to raise money for red
pandas. Our fifth graders got this idea
after completing a technology project that focused on how students can give
back. Students and staff who wore their
pajamas to school on Friday were asked to make a donation to support this cause. Our school raised $912.12! We thank the girls for their efforts!
Teachers Collaboratively Analyze
Students’ Writing
One of our school
goals for the year is to study and implement best writing practices across
grades K-5. Teachers have been engaging
in conversations around grade level writing expectations and studying national
writing expert, Lucy Calkin’s, most recent curricula. Teachers are currently reviewing students’
narrative writing as a team.
Collaboratively reviewing students’ writing helped teams clarify student
expectations and prompted conversations regarding our next steps for
instruction. We look forward to sharing
our progress and students’ writing with you throughout the year!
