Took my students on 2 virtual field trips this week! One student sent me a picture she drew from our field trip to the Australian Zoo! Too good not to share! #newpalproud #elearning #virtualfieldtrip @SouthernHancock

After reading “Most Marshmallows,” by Rowboat Watkins, the students wanted to know if Rowboat was his real name. After some research, we decided to reach out and ask him. Can you figure out what his real name is from his response? The kids get to try tomorrow! @SouthernHancock

Today we signed our classroom agreement. Each week, we’ve thought of rules that would make our school and our classroom a comfortable, happy place to be. We think about our actions and do things because they are the right thing to do! #newpalproud @SouthernHancock

Mrs. Seib & Mrs. Keesling visited our class to share a lesson about social thinking. We talked about considering others thoughts and feelings, as well as how to handle strong emotions. #newpalproud @SouthernHancock

We decided that mathematicians work with one another, communicate, and try to do math in many different ways. Using these traits, we partnered up to build LEGO creations! #funfriday #newpalproud @SouthernHancock
