This week, we took a brain break from MCAP testing to listen to Sakura, a traditional Japanese folk song, and make our own Sakura tree for the classroom! Zoom in to see the optimistic messages students wrote on their cherry blossoms 🌸

Not a bad way to spend an afternoon!

As part of our "Reset Week", my students thought about ways they could become better versions of themselves. Each person wrote a promise to themselves that is now a feather on our class mascot, who lives in our room as a reminder to be the best them they can be.

I love when a student turns in a practice video and I can hear their family clapping for them in the background 🥰

[MsCiaccioDMSmusic @ciaccioDMS]

I love breakthroughs! After struggling with a concept, this student had a lightbulb moment where it all made sense, and he celebrated by putting this image in his assignment to show me that he got it 👍 what a creative way to celebrate in virtual learning!

Such a cool demonstration! Anyone else watching? 👀

I remembered to get proof this time! Thanks to Mr. Brown for helping us get ready for our upcoming Assessments 🦉

[MsCiaccioDMSmusic @ciaccioDMS]

Our Eighth Grade Instrumentalists were so excited this week to get the opportunity to work with Dundalk High's very own Mr. Brown! Forming those relationships early means everything. We were even so focused I forgot to take pictures 🤦

Check us out! It's great to see our little group growing 💛

The music doesn't stop in room 114! After their playing tests, these students chose to write their own melody and freestyle over it 🎤🎶🎹
