September 5th-September 9th

Never forget that you can make a difference in a child's life. Building relationships and being a champion for your students will allow you greater success in your classroom along with greater achievement of your students. Try and take a moment this week to make a connection with a student you haven't had time to connect with on a more personal real human level and see the difference your relationship with that student can make in a short period of time. Did you know one of your many superpowers is being a champion to kids?

Next week we will be starting our read-alouds to all classes with last year's Newbery award winner! Since we have so many classrooms, Amy and I will be dividing up the classes. We will be playing around with scheduling these, but to start with we have created a google doc for you to add a time that might work each day (maybe reader's workshop?) that we could stop in for 5-10 minutes. We are hoping to read the book to all classes by the end of the month, so no rush to fit in next week! The book trailer is below in case you'd like to check it out!

Have a great weekend!
