Week of 9/20-9/24

                                 

What a busy week our 1st graders had!  On Tuesdays and Thursdays we are welcoming 2 UVM students into our classroom. Miss Melanie and Miss Elizabeth are both juniors at UVM.  They are working on their practicum in our classroom.  They are both eager to work with our learners and we have enjoyed their energy so far.
