Our first week was WONDERFUL! The students are quickly making new friends as we explore a community based on friendship, sharing, listening, and kindness. I am currently conducting diagnostics with each student to assess their present skill levels in math and literacy. The data from these will give me an idea of how to pace the class, and set rigorous standards. Please talk with your student about all the fun things we did this week and ask them about our team and how we treat each other. Check out the pictures of us practicing sharing, keeping our hands to ourselves, raising our hands, saying nice things, respecting each other, and walking slowly. Show your student these pictures and constantly go over the rules.
