Another fun afternoon of Crazy 8’s Math Club! We had fun discussions about order of operations &probability, made a human bar graph and played Radical BINGO! BINGO with a twist where teams battled it out choosing operations to complete a row of 5 to get BINGO!🎲📊 🌟#WESProud18

@Prin_Smith and I are taking time with each class this week to focus on learning more about each of our students and the power they have to make others feel seen. And giving our teachers the simple gift of time to start November off right.🌻 #relationships #WeReRSU18 #WESProud18

LEADERS!! When we let THE TOUGH THINGS that happened yesterday preclude us from seeing THE GREAT THINGS that happen today we get FURTHER from the REASON WE LOVE THE JOB and CLOSER to the REASON WE DON’T. #LeadFromWhereYouAre #1minwalk2work #ImpactTheNarrative #HackingLeadership
