Welcome back!

The beginning of the school year is always busy-but I have met with all of the students. I am so looking forward to spending time with them in the classrooms, in small groups, and at seminars.

Seminars-There will be seminars offered throughout this school year. The seminars topics  offered can be found at this link. These will be 1/2 day or full day events held at the Westside Community Center.  We will transport to that event and back to school.  If your child is interested in participating, he or she will need to complete the ticket and submit it by the due date. There will be some seminars where we have a more interest than spots, so please  encourage your child to turn in his/her best work on the tickets and to get them in by the due date.

All tier 2/3 students will be attending a seminar on Sept 3. The students will be creating his/her online portfolios.  This is a 1/2 day event and will be held at the Westside Community Center.

Reading-We are creating accounts in Storybird and the student have started making an “All About Me” book. This resource  is amazing, and we will be using it this year to create projects.  Screen Shot 2015-08-23 at 8.27.37 AM
