Happy Summer!

I'm glad I was your teacher,

I've come to love you so.

I can't believe the end is here,

I'm sad to see you go.

You'll always be a Schuh Star

And I'll cherish you dearly.

You light up my life,

I mean that sincerely.

Remember all the fun we had

In all the things we did,

But most of all remember

You're a very special kid.

Love, Mrs. Schuh

We won the daily total trophy!

Pennies for Patients

We had a lovely morning counting coins and working together to celebrate our week's total of $200!!! The class is so excited and I am in awe of their commitment to this cause!  As a teacher, I couldn't be more excited about the authentic experience this project lends to counting money!  However, witnessing the positivity and community building this project provides is the benefit I appreciate even more!  Keep up the hard work Schuh Stars!

Teachers learning from our students

I was excited to attend the 2015 METC educational technology conference and learn from a few of our very own students! Glenridge students did a great job sharing their experience with Robotics! 

Being a Teacher by Ceci

I got to teach the class .  I felt like a real teacher.  You feel like a teacher when the class listens to you.  And they are happy to learn what you learned about.   I studied about New York and I worked very hard,it seems like all that hard work payed off.  If you think about it you are doing the same thing as your teacher.  You're making a google slide, having the whole class listen to you.  I had 12 slides (lots of learning).    Now you can hear about the teaching I was wearing a homemade  I heart NY shirt.   My favorite slide was niagra falls because I went there.  At the end I showed a song called New York New York.  Thats what it felt like to teach the class.    A little bit ago I did another teach a lesson to the class.  The reason is we as a class didn’t  choose to read about the topic  it ( kakapos) so,  on my own I learned about it.  Before that Sara and Julianne did electric eels.    I learned so much! Ava did California we learned about her and the state! (she grew up there.)   Then Sara strikes back  with BAR TAGS with Lucia.   A great learning tool.   Liam and Liam (salt & pepper)  Are still working on one( a surprise)   I hope you  are inspired by my awesome blog post.

We are 100 % Smart by Josie

                        100% Smart Posters!

               Get your smart on!

By: Josie 

Can you come up with a good definition for smart? When Mrs. Schuh told us to come up with a definition for smart we couldn't.  When you get into third grade you will see what you are best at or what your “strong” at.                 The “strengths” that there are are Music smart, Art smarts , People smarts, Nature smarts, Self smarts, Body smarts, Logic smarts and Word smarts.                                                     

When Mrs. Schuh and you, know what smart or “strong” there is a color for each smart, Art smart is orange, Number smart is blue, Music smart is pink, People smart is red, Nature smart is brown, Body smart is purple,  Word smart is green, so you will get the color that goes with your smart.

When you are done with your smart poster Mrs. Schuh will hang it up on the wall so everyone can see what your 100% smart is!
