This week we celebrated the arrival of our four new Butler teachers!<\/p>\n

For any parents who don’t know, we have a very close partnership with Butler University. Students who are in Butler’s College of Education meet at our school for some of their classes. For those classes, they then spend one whole day a week in our classrooms. This is a great opportunity for them to get experience trying different teaching strategies and it is a great opportunity for us to have more educators in the room working with our kids!<\/p>\n

On Monday, our four new Butler teachers spent their first day with us. They will be spending most every Monday in the classroom teaching and caring for the kids in our school community. Feel free to say hello and introduce yourself if you’re ever in the room the same time they are. They are all wonderful!<\/p>\n

Miss Schaar spent time reading with Spencer on Monday.<\/p>\n

In other new this week, we have been reviewing some of the animal reading strategies that help us remember how to read tricky words. We have spent time reviewing Ready Rooster, Stretchy Snake, Chunky Monkey, and Flippy Dolphin, all of which are on the reading strategies flyer I sent home this week.<\/p>\n

In math workshop, we have been continuing our exploration of measurement within the context of problem solving this week. The kids loved Mouse Town (which is now done and displayed above our cubbies! Check it out next time you are at school), but many of them have expressed an excitement to be solving math problems in our math journals again!
\nIt’s a great day when your students are asking for more math problems to solve.<\/p>\n

In writers workshop we have been continuing to talk about details in our writing. It is my hope that conversation about details this week will be good preparation for our dialogue about adjectives and synonyms next week! Stay tuned to hear more!<\/p>\n
