What a happy day! Thank you Kiwanis Club of Saline for our annual 3rd grade dictionaries. The kids wanted to stay in from recess just to read them. It made a rainy indoor recess very exciting! @WMPrincipal
A fun way to start our day being read to by University of Michigan student-athletes! Thank you, Hannah and Tara! @umichrowing @UMichDance @umichathlead @UMichAthletics @WMPrincipal

Using blended learning in our math lessons allows me to clone myself so I can work one-on-one with Ss. Self-paced and self-directed. My Ss loved hearing their teacher talk right to them in a video. #wmlearn #sascompass
