Hello everybody!
Welcome to a brand new school year! I hope that your summer and enjoyed many wonderful adventures and special memories. I am Miss Lopez and I am looking forward to working with you this school year! I cannot wait to begin this journey with you all. As a teacher, I strive to have a creative classroom environment and to push my students to be their very best! This is why I am once again incorporating Flexible Seating in my classroom. This means that when students are working they will have the freedom to find comfortable spaces around the room to work. They might be kneeling, standing, sitting, working on a carpet or carpet squares, leaning on a pillow with a clipboard, sitting at a desk with an exercise ball or mambo stool. There are many possibilities of what this can look like in a classroom! Research shows that students are able to focus and do their best work when they are comfortable:) I will send a letter home with your munchkin that explains Flexible seating a little more. By the end of the week they should be able to tell you all about multiple intelligences:)
I will be communicating with you in a variety of ways throughout the year. One of the way to stay connected will be this blog. Bookmark it, join it, or visit it often so not to miss what is going on in our classroom!
Looking forward to a wonderful year together!
Miss Lopez
