NKC Orchestra showcased their beautiful string instruments for our Briarcliff Bears. We hope this experience recruits lots of new string musicians to our 5th Grade Strings class! More information will be coming home soon!! #TheDenAtBriarcliff#LearningOnTheCliff
Thank you Mayor Delong and the City of NKC for hosting The Den At Briarcliff at City Hall today. We are eager to use our new learning about how our local government functions to write our new Briarcliff expectations matrix. #TheDenAtBriarcliff#learningonthecliff
After reading, This is NOT a box, student designed hexagons that weren’t hexagons for our first design thinking project. Student will be selecting one to create into a class mural to show how all of our ideas fit together as a class family. #Microschool#learningonthecliff
Out with the old and in with the new! Student began analyzing our previous BEAR matrix by identifying what we liked and suggestions we have for improvement. Tomorrow we begin dividing into teams to begin rewriting the NEW Briarcliff matrix! #TheDenAtBriarcliff#LearningOnTheCliff
E: “You have a great start, but can I show you an easier strategy.”
J: “I like that strategy, it’s way easier! You’re a good friend for helping me.”
These are the conversations that melt my heart! We are definitely growing our communication skills!
