Poetry

We have been working very dilligently at our poetry for the last few weeks. I always look forward to hearing what everybody wrote - and I think that they enjoy showing it off! We have an "open-mic" part of our day where we share.

Spring Break

Welcome back from spring break! I hope that you all had a wonderful time skiing and swimming and hanging out. Can't wait to hear your stories!

Tech Conference

Hi students and parents! I spent 3 days in Seattle this week at a tech conference. I learned a TON of really cool "stuff" and I can't wait to show you everything when I get back. See you on Wednesday. Check out some of my favorite speeches from the other day below!
