Welcome to Green House 5
with Ms. May Voltz
September 8 - 11, 2020
Dear Green House FamiLEE!
Thank you for a wonderful week. I am really enjoying getting to know your children better, both during our morning meetings and class and small group Zoom sessions. Their personalities are shining brightly and they are bringing joy to my heart daily! The other day I just sat back while visiting with a few learners (online of course) and thought to myself, I'm pretty sure I couldn't have done what they are doing at the ripe old age of ten. Watching and listening to their collaboration in breakout rooms, seeing them edit responses in Google Slides, and helping each other is inspiring! I am so very proud of this group of learners. We are working on believing in ourselves and having a growth mindset. We know and appreciate how productive struggle and mistakes help us grow.
Thank you to all of you who came to Curriculum Night! I have attached the video and presentation in our Schoology Maths Course in the Parent Folder. You can also visit my website to find the Curriculum Night link. I also included the CISD Gifted and Talented presentation. You can always email me or post questions in the Discussion Post.
You've all worked hard this week. Enjoy the long weekend. Rest, play, and repeat! I'll see you all bright and early Tuesday morning at 7:50!
Sincere Thanks and Appreciation,
Ms. Voltz
I'm Flabbergasted! Are You?
