My students know that I have a strong love for Costco lol. Literally every weekend my mom and I go, and my students find it quite amusing. So today I am dressed up as a Costco Sample Lady. Hope they approve! Lol

Our wonderful EA got married last week. So my grade 1 & 2 students came up with some marriage advice. Lol.

Our little 1C graduation today. We rolled out the red paper and celebrated each and every student. ❤️ This group has been absolutely amazing! They have been so resilient throughout all of the challenges of this year. I am so thankful that I got to be a part of their grade 1 year!

HSD acknowledges that parents/caregivers and students in our community may have differing opinions regarding COVID-19 measures in schools. Today’s protest at the SRSS created an unsafe environment and disrupted in-class learning. View statement at... https://t.co/ZxBlFQ1mKX

One of the most amazing things I've seen a student create. One of our 10 year olds built this rubik's cube solving robot as part of our passion project unit. About 50 hours of 3D printing and a load of wiring and troubleshooting headaches later it does this:

Remembrance Day art in 1C today. @WoodlawnHSD @HanoverSD

I often talk about the power of ‘yet’ with my Ss. So often they tell me all about the things they can’t do and I see such lack of confidence in so many kids. I always remind them to end those words with ‘yet’. Eventually they will reach ‘yet’. ❤️ This book is great! @WoodlawnHSD

[Amanda Cipriano @AmandaCipps]

On ‘meet the teacher’ I asked parents and caregivers to write down their hopes for their child’s grade 1 year. Reading their hopes absolutely melted my heart. ❤️ #grade1 #hsdwes #hsdlearns @WoodlawnHSD @HanoverSD

[Amanda Cipriano @AmandaCipps]

1C is having a great start to grade 1! It’s so nice that we can play and explore together this year!I am so proud of how well these kiddos are handling the new mask mandates!Children are so resilient & sometimes I don’t think we give them enough credit.❤️ @WoodlawnHSD @HanoverSD
