Elmore School Update – May 7, 2021
As Mother Nature was catching us up on some much needed rain this week, we still managed to have outdoor recess every day. We ended the week with a glorious, sunny day allowing us to squeak in an extra recess and eat lunch outdoors. This week we began planning for our last writing unit where students will write an imaginary, fiction story. We also …
Elmore Family Update – April 30, 2021
Students were back in full swing this week after what I hope was a nice April Break despite the snow and somewhat cooler temperatures. We are in the home stretch for the end of the school year now. We still have much to accomplish, and experience tells me the time will pass quickly. Next week third graders will begin practicing for the SBAC assessments …
Elmore Family Update – April 16, 2021
The week began with temperatures in the 70s and ended with a wintery snow storm! As we do with everything…we rolled with it.

Students are learning that authors do many drafts …

The consensus is in, and March definitely came in like a lion and went out like a lamb. We had such pleasant spring-like weather the last couple of weeks and then BAM! Winter is back!

Spring is officially here and the weather this week did not disappoint! The snow has melted from the majority of our playground and pick up soccer games have resumed! The swings have been busy and a “band” is in the works. We even ate lunch outside on Thursday! It seems there is a new energy as we shift into our final trimester. During Writer’s …
Elmore Family Letter – March 19, 2021
It was another quick week in the classroom. The promise of springs arrival was evident. With days get warmer and the light stays longer, we are all getting anxious for the snow to melt and to spend more time outdoors again soon.
