What an incredible first week it’s been! I have had so much fun starting to get to know each and every one of you! Part of your homework each week will be to write a response to a blog post that I will create (that’s my homework every week). I have had such a busy time trying to get ready for school to start this year and in this time, I’ve started to think about new beginnings and fresh starts. This is a whole new school for me and I feel like each day I’m learning so many new things. I am loving the vibe at Dr. Charles Best and I really look forward to continuing that learning. For your blog post this week, I want you to think about your start this year, your learning career in grade 5. What do you want to achieve? How will you get there? How will you become the person you want to be, what steps will you have to take? What are three rules or promises that you can make that will help you become this person? What will you strive for this year?
Here are my promises to you!
This year I promise to:
1. Give 110% in my lesson planning and delivery. I will try to engage you through the activities I plan in class, making them meaningful, powerful, and helpful.
2. Listen to you. If you have questions, concerns, ideas, thoughts, or anything else and you would like to talk to me about them, I will be there to listen. This can be in class, after school, before school, by email, or at break. Your voice matters, your ideas matter, you matter!
3. Expect amazing things. I promise that my expectations for you will be high, and that I will expect that you can achieve in all subjects. I know that you are an exceptional learner and that you will succeed in so many different ways!
Using the reply feature, can you write a short paragraph, with your three promises on this year?
