Greetings!

Hello 1C families and friends,
Welcome to our 1C blog! I hope this blog post finds you well. I am excited to start this new eLearning journey with you! Every Friday I will be posting our lesson plans for the coming week. Please explore the blog.  I will be adding more content as we progress on this journey. I know that my 1C firsties will be working extra hard at home to continue all the progress they have made this year!

*If you have any questions please reach out via email. My office hours will be from 9:00-11:00 a.m., Monday-Friday. The office hours are for a quick response; however, I will be available from 9:00-3:30 p.m. Any emails received after 3:30 will be corresponded to the following day. Thank you so much for your continued support and understanding throughout this journey.

Hello 1C friends and families,  You are doing awesome! Keep it up 1C! Here are the week 2 lesson plans. Remember to take this one day at a time and keep working hard. Please make sure to check out the different tabs that have been added to our blog. I added a read-aloud section, which gives students a book to listen to every day and asks them to think about their reading and talk about the story with a family member or complete a reading response sheet.  I have also added a counseling tab. Here you can find a link to our OB counselors' page and the activities that they have planned for the week.   Another new tab is the optional learning tab. This has some optional activities that you may ask your kiddos to do.  I have also added a Flipgrid for us to get to see one another and stay connected! The directions for how to use this awesome interactive resource is under the "additional resources" tab. I can't wait to see my 1C firsties!

Looking back on this first year of teaching, I am just so thankful that you have given me the opportunity to work with your family and have been so encouraging through it all. Every note of thanks, thoughtful gift, and kind words that you have shared with me have meant the world to me! From the bottom of my heart, thank you so much for partnering with me on your child's educational journey.  * I went to clean out our classroom and packed all student belongings.
