Snowy February

Good Afternoon, I hope this update finds you well as the snow is falling on this Friday, and the cold air continues to linger around. Inside at NDLC the 3rd graders have been working hard, and continuing to build on their learning every single day. With report cards being on IC this past week, and i-Ready scores will be sent home next week, I am reminded as a teacher just how much the students are pushing themselves every day. With these different data points, and at the halfway point in the school year it is important to understand that each child is working hard every day, and may not be exactly where they want to be at the end of the year, but also remembering we only at the halfway point. We are all going to continue to push ourselves every day to try and make that growth every day. Week in Review: Writing: Writers worked with more independence on their literary essays, and we ended the week working on revising our writing to lift the level of our writing to the best it can be!

 Good Afternoon, The days continue to fly by here at school as we progress on our learning journey this school year. We talk a lot in class about the learning process, and what that means; learning a little each day and building on what we have already learned. Then along the way of the process we see truly just how much growth we make if we have that mindset, and I am very proud of the student's daily efforts to push for continued growth in the learning process.

Content: Students worked on passion projects this week! They use...

Virtual Week has disconnected!

 Good Afternoon, We have made it to the end of a full week of virtual learning! Was it easy? No. Did we persevere? Absolutely! From the wifi not connecting to the Chromebook microphones not working, and everything in between; we persevered and were able to learn throughout the way. There are two clear things that I will remember from this past week: #1. The graciousness and patience all of you displayed for both myself and child, 2. How much closer our class came together. You learn to appreciate things just a little more when they are taken away, and that is something our class went through together, and we are coming out of it even stronger, and more together! Week in Review: Math: We began to learn our subtraction strategies within 3 digit numbers. We persevered through what felt like some long, grueling learning days! Writing: Writers finished up realistic fiction stories, started working on entries in our writers notebooks, and even got to experience some Sacred Writing Time! ...
