Robison Elementary School
March, 2025
We all experience moments in our lives when we have to choose to do what is right and Kind. Sometimes, it’s not easy to know what choice to make. We need to have the right tools to make those decisions and be strong enough to follow through. This month's focus for 3rd grade is practicing Courage with the help of flexible thinking.
A growth mindset—believing that abilities can be developed through effort—is essential for your child’s success in school. During Spring Break, you can help nurture this mindset with a few simple strategies:
· Discuss Personal Experiences: Share your own stories of overcoming challenges and learning from mistakes. By talking about how persistence and effort helped you, you’ll model a growth mindset and inspire your child to apply the same approach to their own learning.
· Encourage Reflection: Use the break as a time to discuss your child’s achievements and challenges from the school year. Help them reflect on what they’ve learned and how they can continue to grow.
· Promote Learning Activities: Suggest engaging and educational activities that align with their interests. This keeps their minds active and reinforces the idea that learning is a continuous journey.
By incorporating these practices during Spring Break, you’re helping your child develop resilience and a positive attitude toward their learning.
Greetings from OMA! I Our younger students will be learning about Jazz music and improvising on classroom instruments. After break we will working more with our mallet instruments (xylophones and metallophones) and doing a lesson on Vivaldi's Four Seasons. Third graders are doing great work with their recorders. We will be taking off the tape, learning a few more notes and many more songs. Our fifth graders are sounding better and better on their instruments, and will keep working hard to work as a team and get music ready for our next concert. Have a safe Spring Break and a magnificent March!
STEM is in the air! Or is it Spring?
