@_CrystalMello @kristenny12 @emeadowschools Such a fun event!

[Janine Knopf @JanineKnopf1]

Our 7th graders did a phenomenal job with our first ever 7th Grade Team Building Day! Ss understood the purpose of collaborating with one another to build a sense of community. We can’t wait to see their growth this year! 7th Grade Sticks Together at WMS! @_CrystalMello

Thanks to all the clubs that participated in the Club Fair! We can’t wait to see Ss participate in all Woodland has to offer!

@ms_woodland’s Winter Dance! ❄️ NJHS worked hard making snowflakes and turning the gym into a winter wonderland!

So excited for our dystopian book tasting today! Book clubs starting soon! @ms_woodland @RebeccaRegan20

[Janine Knopf @JanineKnopf1]

Ss learned more about dystopian lit and analyzed quotes from “All Summer in a Day”. They used peardeck to match each quote to the appropriate genre-specific criteria. @ms_woodland @RebeccaRegan20

[Janine Knopf @JanineKnopf1]

Our Social Studies/ELA Enrichment created Revolutionary War Alphabet books. Ss were asked to research beyond the basic concepts, events, and people they learned about in Social Studies to gain deeper insight into the American Revolution. @RebeccaRegan20 @ms_woodland

[Janine Knopf @JanineKnopf1]

We started our dystopian book club unit by sparking conversation with a 4 corners activity using utopian and dystopian visuals @ms_woodland @RebeccaRegan20

[Janine Knopf @JanineKnopf1]

Today, Ss got to choose one of the following activities to jumpstart 2023 in ELA! @ms_woodland @RebeccaRegan20

[Janine Knopf @JanineKnopf1]

Something fun I found from my days as a student in the East Meadow School District!

[Janine Knopf @JanineKnopf1]

Ss have been working hard on their ALWTW Choice Board. They have the option of researching a waterborne illness, creating a TED Talk dealing with various global issues, or creating a Two-Voice poem. Some are even creating their own music to go along with the poem! @ms_woodland

[Janine Knopf @JanineKnopf1]

Ss worked hard developing a claim, counterclaim, and rebuttal in their argumentative essays. They were asked to prove if Salva uses luck or skill to overcome challenges. Looks like skill is taking the lead. @ms_woodland @RebeccaRegan20

[Janine Knopf @JanineKnopf1]

We started class by writing in our gratitude journals. Wishing everyone a Happy and Healthy Thanksgiving 🦃 @ms_woodland

Mr. Vassel and SEL did an amazing job creating posters to honor the Veterans at Mitchel Manor today. Happy Birthday to the U.S. Marines and Happy Veterans Day! Proud to say my brother, Lieutenant Halstead, is now officially a Veteran. @ms_woodland
