We are back in action...and it's not an April Fools joke!

Thank you so much to Kristen Courcelle, our Information Technology Educator in South Burlington, she's amazing.

Our Taiko Performance, following our two-week artist in residence, was a huge success!  Thank you to Paton Sensei from the Burlington Taiko Group as well as our PTO and Mrs. Rito for this experience.

We are changing the world with our opinions, one letter at a time!  We walked to the US Post Office on White Street in South Burlington to mail our opinion letters.  We worked hard in our persuasive writing unit.  This was a fun way to publish our work and celebrate spring at the same time.  Thank you to Officer Bri for helping us safely cross Williston Road.

 

Thank you to Anita's Mom Brittany and Kyle's Mom, Kelly for teaching our class about squirrels in our Hands-on-Nature lesson this month.  We were able to identify a squirrel skull vs. the skull of a mink, a variety of squirrel pelts, some math problem solving about flying (gliding) squirrels and lots of information about how squirrels survive in the puppet show.  

Ms. Nancy completed our Math Through Art residency with an activity that focused on the idea of half of a rectangle.  Our display, with our observations, will be in the hallway for you to see during parent-teacher conferences.  

Ms. Bryce will be completing her student teaching journey with us as a solo teacher starting next week.  I am confident in her skills and I'm excited about the learning opportunities she has planned for our students.  

Thank you for all you do,
Jen Belisle & Kylie Bryce
