Welcome back to a new school year! Deb and I are excited to be working together this year on Team Esprit: a third grade team that honors liveliness of mind and spirit! We believe it is important to create a community where all learners feel safe, respected and have a sense of belonging. It is important to focus equally on the social, emotional and academic needs of students. We strive to meet children where they're at by differentiating instruction, choosing developmentally appropriate activities and providing a balance between teacher-directed and self-directed learning. We value play, the arts, movement, creativity and laughter as important and meaningful parts of the learning process for children.
We will be using this blog to share with you all that we will be learning and doing this year in third grade! Please check our blog weekly as it will be updated each Friday. We are looking forward to a great year with your children!
