Team Urban,
This second full week of school students really stretched their brains by learning new things such as commutative property and division, restating a question with an answer, and taking our first spelling and reading test.
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 for the birthday wishes!
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! The classroom door was beautifully decorated as well!
Ms. Jordan will be the Room Mom for Team Urban! Thank you!!
