W1 - Feb 26

Dear, parents.

Although, students did not have my class today, I would like to update you on next weeks experience class. 

I have organized a great project that will combine math, craft, and studying about a famous artist and his style of art. 

Although I am overwhelmed and only just finished my first week. I decided I wanted to try influence the experience classes to have more teaching and learning opportunities. I don't think experience class should be just make something. I am very excited to teach this experience class. Students will learn about geometric shapes, tetrahedron, artist Piet Mondrian, primary colors, and fine motor skill of cutting out. 

Next week is the test/quiz. Please encourage students to study for the test. They all received their test/quiz paper back, so they should be able to do this. If you have any questions about the test, feel free to ask. Although, please remember it is just a weekly quiz, it is not an exam. This test/quiz is to show me who is learning from my class, and who needs extra help. 

I hope you all have a wonderful long weekend. 🙏🤍

Dear, parents. Today we covered some Wonders, although students told me some pages were already finished.  We did the first two pages no problem. However, when we came to the last two, it was already filled out. I'm not sure why, and will try work that out tomorrow.  Today we had experience class, which seemed to go okay. Students seem to enjoy learning about Africa art patterns and making their paperplate necklaces. The only issue was with some students standing up and  walking around instead of working on their own project. I repeatedly asked them to wait until break and go back to their seats. Sadly, I eventually shouted to tell them to sit down. This worked, but I don't feel comfortable having to raise my voice so much for a few students who wouldn't follow the rule. Please encourage your children to listen, learn, and respect. Students were sent home with a mocktest. I covered the material during the class, so they should be able to complete i...
