Week 2

The 7th graders (and teachers) made it through the first full week of school, yay!!  Students have jumped into their school work with two feet :)  They seem to be getting comfortable with their schedule and remembering to bring their materials to each class.

Thank you to all the parents I got to talk with at Back to School Night.  To those who could not make it, we missed you!  Your child should have brought a packet of information home to you; you can also view my Prezi (presentation) using the link below.

Student Council elections will be Thursday (officers) & Friday (class representatives) this coming week.  Campaign posters are looking very persuasive!!

Welcome to the 2015-2016 School Year

 Zion Students and Teachers are EXCITED about this school year!

Welcome to our class blog!  I will (try to) post every Friday with fun happenings from the week and important information about upcoming events.

I am extremely happy with how the 7th graders have transitioned into this school year.  They have been great listeners, direction followers, respectful, and full of contagious laughter.  I hope this continues as they dive into each class.  I think they are enjoying having so many different teachers throughout their day.  Organization is going to be key in their success as they travel from room to room.  I have faith they will conquer this challenge!  I am very excited to get to know each of my students; there are many bold and unique personalities that will make this school year lots of fun.
