August 26-30

Team Urban,

This second full week students really stretched their brains learning new things such as commutative property and division, restating a question with an answer, mapping out a personal narrative with transitional phrases, all while having a growth mindset.
Learning new things can sometimes create challenges. Challenges we may have never had before. As we have been applying our monthly habit of growth mindset in class, students may exhibit a fixed mindset at home. Try to reinforce at home that mistakes and challenges help us to grow and learn. Thank you for all your support at home, as our partnership together makes your child more successful throughout the year.

THANK YOU!
Thank you to Mrs. Diercks and Mrs. Cary for decorating my door and class for my birthday. It was a fun surprise for myself and the students! Also, thank you to all the families that sent in a card, gift, or special treat. I am so grateful for our ILCS families. Your kindness and generosity are above and beyond!


Mrs. Diercks and Mrs. Cary will be our Room Moms for Team Urban! Thank you!!
