Park Roadrunners have been very busy over the past month! In Mrs. Begay's class, you can see a combination of informational and functional writing. Each student picked an item, pulled key details about their item, wrote their clues in a list, and "hid" it in the egg for others to guess! In Mrs. Analla's first-grade classroom, students were learning measurement using non-standard measurement tools. They painted a penguin and then measured their penguin using unifix cubes. Using non-standard measurements builds the capacity for students to measure using inches and centimeters in second grade. In Mrs. Sanchez's class, students have been working on their informational writing. Good informational texts have strong transition words. The most common transition words we see first-grade students use is first, next, and last. As they continue through Holbrook Schools, they will learn to vary these words and add voice to their writing. #ParkProud #WhenOneRoadrunnerSucceeds #HundredPercentRoadrunner

Kindergarten Transition Day
Wondering what they're laughing about? Mrs. Newton-Pender is sharing a high-frequency jenga game with one of her families. One participant who came to check out what APTT was all about said as she was leaving, "Man, I wish they had this when I had kids here!" If you weren't able to make the meeting, reach out to the school so we can share with you your child's data and send the activity home with you!

Love is in the air! Tomorrow, our students will be celebrating Valentine's at school. Please get in touch with your child's teacher regarding their plans for parties. We ask that you not deliver items to the office for us to deliver to the students. Due to transportation regulations, students will not be permitted on the bus with balloons, vases of flowers, or large stuffed animals that don't fit into their bags. If you choose to deliver items to school, they will be delivered to the students during the last hour of the day. Thank you for helping our unique students develop!
