Time is Flying by!



Coming to the end of yet another week. We are getting into the swing of things
and are learning so much. In 3rd grade we are talking about the purpose of reading
and why we pick out books. We also learned about genres. The 3rd graders shared 
some writing, so look for some pictures of those who presented their material. 
In math, the kids are learning about numbers and place value. The 4th graders are
working on the same concept in math just at a higher level. Our LA class tackled 
context clues and I think we have earned professional status... 
Busy little bees in 3rd and 4th grade~

First Day Back!

How exciting it was to see all of the kids today... a lot of routine practice and getting use to being in school again! The children are amazing and ready for a great year. Some of the other teachers and I were doing screenings to find the present levels of our kiddos! We are using a new reading program this year grades 3-8. It allows the children to read at their highest independent level possible. Differentiation at its finest! We will continue to work hard to make your child the best they can be! " Whatever it takes"... that will be one of my many mottos this year!

Inspiration...


Always remember where you came from; and never forget where you're going.

Almost time to go back!

I cannot believe it is time to go back to school already!  Hopefully, everyone has had a great summer and is ready to hit the ground "learning".  I look forward to seeing all of you.  We have an open house on August 21st at 5:30 and the first day of school is August 22nd.  It is going to be an awesome school year at Conesville Elementary this year!
