Two days into CFI 70 and it is incredible. I am working with K-8th graders in the resource room. My favorite part so far is a community group on a Friday mornings where the 8th graders lead the whole school in songs, dances, and affirmations 🦁💛

Started our morning with a parade to celebrate the Chinese New Year 🎊🐉

Second grade learned about solids, liquids, and gases by making root beer floats. So grateful I got to help out 🥼🫧

Friday at CFI70 we worked on money sense and learned about Chinese New Year 💛🦁

This month our word is Risk-Takers. Today I read two books and asked 2nd-8th graders how they can be risk-takers. Can’t wait to revisit our goal’s tomorrow💛

I believe children learn best through exploration and exposure. I believe teachers are life changers who need to be supported by the community. I believe education is always evolving Butler COE
