October Habit of Mind: Creating, Imagining and Innovating

Our habit this month is Creating, Imagining and Innovating. People who use this habit are known to: think about how something might be done differently from the “norm”; propose new ideas; strive for originality; and consider novel suggestions others might make. Our teachers will include activities this month to encourage students to think outside the box.

“The future is not some place we are going to but one we are creating. The paths are not to be found, but made, and the activity of making them changes both the maker and the destination.” ~John Schaar, Political Scientist

“To live a creative life, we most lose the fear of being wrong.” ~Joseph Chilton Pearce

“Imagination is more important than knowledge.” ~ Albert Einstein

Pumpkin Patch Field Trip is Tomorrow

Our kindergarteners to 3rd graders will have their annual pumpkin patch trek to Nicasio to walk through fields and choose a pumpkin. Thank you to all the parents who have volunteered to drive and chaperone this special trip. We couldn’t enjoy the day without you. Please don’t forget to bring a booster or car seat for your child if it is needed for the ride.

Our 2015 School Roster is in TeacherEase

Everyone can now find the current School Roster by logging into your TeacherEase account. There is a menu on the top called “Communicate” and under that is the “digital locker”. You will find the 2015 roster in the digital locker where it can be downloaded onto your desktop and saved or printed.

Also, please let me (Trudy) know if you find an error in your listing and I will correct it. Thanks for your help.
