We often talk about kindness, but the real test lies in choosing to be kind to those who treat us poorly. It's easy to be kind to those we like, but showing kindness to others, even when it's challenging, reflects our inner strength, integrity, and empathy.

1st-grade teachers are just as important as college professors. While their responsibilities may differ in scope and complexity, their impact on students' development and learning is equally significant.

We made “responsibility rings” and linked them together to make a promise to always be responsible. #RISEday

During the word work portion of our Into Reading lesson we focused on antonyms and generated this awesome list.

“On this night 22 years ago, 246 people went to sleep in preparation for their morning flights. 2,606 people went to sleep in preparation for work in the morning. 343 firefighters went to sleep in preparation for their morning shift. 60 police officers went to sleep in preparation for morning patrol. 8 paramedics went to sleep in preparation for the morning shift of saving lives.

None of them saw past 10 am September 11, 2001. In that single moment, life was changed. Tonight as you go to sleep in preparation for your life tomorrow, kiss the ones you love, see the good all around you and never take your life for granted. Teach your children what happened this day and don’t let it be forgotten.”

So impressed with how many S words these kindergarteners came up with during our letter study today! 🤩

[Marissa Croce @Ms_Croce_]

What fun we’ve had this week! I love spending time with these awesome kindergarteners! 😃

[Marissa Croce @Ms_Croce_]

In Kindergarten we’ve been working on our letter sounds and finding words that begin with each letter of the alphabet. This week we worked with letters N, O, P, Q, and R. Here are some words we found! @Levittown_PS

I was sent this photo from one of my former student’s mom. She made this is school today, two years since I have seen her. She was in my first official class.

There are no words to describe how my heart feels/felt while reading this. Beyond thankful for moments like this. ❤️🥺

Today in 4th grade we learned more about the circulatory system by reading “The Circulatory Story.” We chatted and wrote down some things we learned. Such amazing discussions happened today in room 405. @Levittown_PS
