Our Class Promise

After spending a couple of weeks getting to know each other, I thought the time was right for us to create a class code of conduct or class promise. Instead of imposing a list of rules, I wanted the students to have a voice so I asked them what they thought would be important ideas to include in our class code/promise. They broke off into small groups with sticky notes to record their ideas. After their group conferencing time, we gathered as a class and sorted/compiled their ideas. It was amazing to see that almost half of the class suggested following the 'Golden Rule: treat others how you want to be treated' so that big idea tops our list! The only one I added as the classroom teacher was 'Be Safe.' We all signed the promise and it is now displayed near our class prayer table. 

Welcome to my class blog!

I am so happy to be teaching your child Math, Language and Family Life this year!  This class blog will be used to communicate reminders, showcase student learning, update classroom learning goals, etc. See the 'Helpful Tools' (left side) for a link to the OCSB Student Portal which contains many useful tools to support your child's learning at home. It is my goal to post on a weekly basis. Please subscribe to me by email (right side) in order to receive notifications of new posts!
