First Day of School (with kids)

A great first day at MLES. Sheer exhaustion tonight. Very fascinated at the differences and similarities in school population and teacher styles of my past school and this school. I saw many teachers today using music in various forms to signal work times, transition times, etc. A result of a PD opportunity last week that I didn't get to attend. The experimentations witnessed are GREAT! Saw children playing with manipulatives that they will soon be using for math problem-solving. Saw writing in a variety of forms... and best of all... I heard and saw read alouds happening across grade levels.

I spent most of the day taking photos of students. On to BES tomorrow and "huddle time" with my team.
