A beautiful day for a hike at The Denison Pequot Nature Center! ☀️Second graders are studying organisms and their habitat.
Started the day off with Starbucks and a book discussion. Thanks @ashleywright_ for always encouraging continued learning!
Such a fun day!
Our PBIS event sponsored a March Madness Basketball Game between @NorwichPD and @NorwichFD! Way to go woodchucks!! @norwichps #wearenorwich
The excitement when a student says “this is the first book I’ve read by myself!”, is the greatest teacher feeling!
We celebrated Read Across America day with a book tasting! Students were excited to sample new genres. 📚🎉
A student brought us in a praying mantis ootheca, and now we have LOTS of babies. A very exciting (unplanned) and eventful day of learning in room 6 😂 – at Norwich, CT
My 6 year old niece called me distraught yesterday. She said she was sad because they “didn’t have any books to read at school until the governor says they can have books again”. She loves school and loves reading. This is both and heartbreaking👎🏽 – at Manchester, CT
The directive instructs Florida schools to "remove or cover all materials that have not been vetted" in classrooms, according to a copy of the guidance reviewed by @ABC News. trib.al/nLGjy4m
After one week of persuasive writing, I’m getting notes like this! 😂 I am happy to have such a passionate group of students.
Such a fun experience! – at Norwich, CT

I love LETRS. I agree that without a curriculum, many are lost. Teachers should not be expected to write or completely adapt a curriculum. There are the extraordinary, who can and will do that. But every teacher needs not only theroretical knowledge but a solid curriculum.
Today second graders participated in pumpkin math to explore place value. We were shocked to find one pumpkin with 618 seeds! – at Manchester, CT
Storybook Character Day was a BIG hit! Harry Potter, Fancy Nancy, Strega Nona, and some creepy carrots visited second graders. @ZachMaher3 @lisahughes196 thank you!
