PICTURES TRIUMPH - ALBRECHT Ms. Albrecht displayed an impressive example of hundreds of origami birds linked together to inspire students to make just one origami bird each. They followed steps for folding the birds presented in an instructional video. Ms. Albrecht and the teaching assistants advised students when they got to challenging moments in the folding process. Origami folding was a useful task for building listening and observing skills and for developing stamina when tackling hard tasks. Link to 33 Pictures. 100s of origami birds linked together TRAVELERS - CAMERON-MUSCENTE, CULLIGAN Music teacher, Ms. Cameron-Muscente, came into Ms. Culligan’s 2nd-grade room to teach knowledge of sounds and good listening skills. At the time these pictures were taken each student was asked to beat a drum equal to the number of syllables in their first name. Next, students played a freeze-in-place game while listening to music. This second experience was particularly enjoyed. 8-27-2021 Link to 29 Pictures.  VOYAGERS - BASHAW Ms. Bashaw kindly shared a few images from the first days of school.  Link to 8 Pictures. https://photos.app.goo.gl/c25x3KJF6rnJtNDh8 TWINS Teacher, Ms. Bachand and her PreK daughter in matching masks. 8-26-2021
