I hope that you all enjoyed your extended weekend! It has been a busy week. On Tuesday, the teachers had a successful Professional Development Day in which they all collaborated on Mathematics and ELA. Dr. Ribeiro joined us for Common Core math work and teachers in Grades K-2 examined the Reading Street and Fundations programs as they continue to work to align the two. Classrooms were busy as the kids returned on Wednesday and as of today, we are all looking forward to (hopefully) some warmer temperatures over the next few days so that we can get outside and run around.
Enjoy your weekend!
Please mark your calendars...
Grade 3 ELA MCAS
Wednesday, March 20th & Thursday, March 21st
Garrett Akie, son of a former Wrentham Public Schools' Grade 4 teacher, came to share his knowledge and Power Point of photos from a research trip to
Antarctica in October 2012. As part of the Kindergarten Reading Street program, the students read a Big Book entitled: If
You Could Go To Antarctica. Garrett's real photos looked just like the
book and we were all impressed by the kids' many great questions! Thank you Mr. Akie!
Sincerely,
Melissa D. Peterson
