Updates and Events

Dear Families,
We have been doing some very important work in math and science.  The students have been recording observations in their science journals about the characteristics of living and nonliving things.  We also had a fabulous Four Winds presentation about decomposition specific to rotting logs and what is living inside them.  Students were given the opportunity to explore and investigate rotting logs and collect important evidence.  

In math, we have been learning about the importance of number lines.  With a number line as support, students practice counting the forward and backward sequences. This also helps students understand interval counting and allows them to practice using positional words such as before and after.

Updates and Events

Dear Families,

Today we had to say good bye to our UVM intern, Autumn Albrecht.  She was a fabulous addition to our classroom and will be greatly missed.  The students gave her a handmade desk calendar and cards.  She chose two books to donate to our classroom.  Also, each student received a special note and a hand selected pencil.  There was an assembly this morning to recognize all of the interns in our building.  They were each given a certificate of appreciation and a Summit Street School shirt. Below are some pictures of Miss Albrecht's last day.  She will be starting full-time student teaching in a fourth grade classroom in Colchester after the first of the year.  We wish her well!  We will also be having a full-time student teacher from UVM starting in January.  Her name is Mariah Gentley.  She has been visiting our classroom and will visit again tomorrow. We look forward to having her join!
