What a Great day!!!

Hi Friends,
I hope that all you formers had a fantastic day today-we did in Room 306! We had to do a bunch of that "Procedural stuff" today and will also do that tomorrow but we also got to know each other a bit and I am very excited for the year and getting to teach such a fine group of students! Here you are (newest "Buchwalds")... thank you for humoring me and walking around the courtyard just so I could get a good shot of our long line! Get some sleep (after you read of course!) and I will see you tomorrow.. Ms. B

Dear Former Students,

How are you??? I miss you guys! Please tell me how summer has been going (notice, I did NOT refer to summer being in the past tense..it is STILL ON!).

Those of you going into seventh grade, please email or stop by to let me know how it is all going. I am so excited to hear about what you do in the future... I hope you are well.

:) Ms. Buchwald

ps Did you read the rest of the Hunger Games Series?

Hello Students!

So you got your letter and you are in my fifth grade class this year! Let me tell you how excited I am for our schoolyear. Seriously. I have been doing some planning and have gone into the classroom several times to start setting up and am really getting into the groove.

Here is a secret: There will be a quiz. on. the. first. day. of. school. Yes...isn't that terrible? It will be on multiplication and division facts. If you are reading this and know anyone else in our class..feel free to share this secret-maybe you could study a bit. It is just a little "snapshot" for me to know where you are in math since we will be diving right on into it-no pressure!

And what have you read this summer? I read "BossyPants" by Tina Fey, "Thinking in Pictures" by Temple Grandin and COUNTLESS photography books and blogs. I am going to read "Hotel on the Corner of Bitter and Sweet" next.

I am so excited to get to know you all..please comment and/or follow and/or stalk this blog!

See you so soon,
Ms. Buchwald
