The Start of a Great Year!

Hi everyone,

Last week, I spent several days setting up our classroom, and I'll be going back in on Monday to put on the finishing touches.  I can't tell you how excited I am about this year!  We'll have the Seedfolk Community Vegetable Garden, some new technology in the classroom, and all of your smiling faces!  I guarantee this is going to be a great year.   We'll spend the first week getting to know each other, building a cohesive team, and setting out expectations so you can all be successful fifth graders.  Don't forget your school supplies and story maps...but most importantly, don't forget your GREAT attitudes!  I'll see you all on Tuesday!

Counting the Days!

Hi Everyone!

This week I'll be entering the classroom to set up for the beginning of a great school year!  The PRS "Seedfolk" community garden is looking great and we have lots of veggies growing.  I've been working on lots of new and fun ways to help you learn and I am SOOOOOO excited to get started on August 31.  Our building looks great (Mr. Bob and his team did a great job-the building is so clean and shiny, it seems like a brand new school)!  Make sure you have completed your two story maps (one for the fiction book and a second for the non fiction book) and that you bring them to school on your first day along with your supplies, and MOST improtantly...your smiles and great attitude.

See you soon,

Mr. Weinstein

Growth in the Garden!

Hi all,

With only two weeks until I start setting up our classroom for the new school year, I went by to check on our Community Garden.  We have lots of peas, carrots, pumpkins and cucumbers growing.  It's very exciting and the garden will give us an opportunity to do lots of neat things this year.  We'll be working with Ms.  Jenn's class to care for it, and other classrooms may pitch in, too.  It's a VERY exciting undertaking at PRS and I can't wait to share it with you!

See you soon!

Mr. Weinstein
