Cecile Moskowitz and Rhonda Cherry ROC to support student learning.
For the past several years, our bulletin board was used to display photos of our students actively engaged in fun learning experiences that were taking place in our learning center. The students’ loved being reminded of the connections they were making by being able to see themselves with each other, with us, and equally as important, engaged with the material they were learning.
This year’s bulletin board was inspired the REACH OUT AND CONNECT (ROC) slogan. ROC seemed a perfect fit for our board this year and so with some regret we finally took down all of the pictures from the past 2 years, and decided to start anew. Not only do the students love seeing themselves surrounded by their teachers and peers but they are reminded each day of how much we value the human connections that we are all making with each other. There will always be a place to display student work but we feel that this ROC board displays something equally important, the power of human connections and the need for all of us to be part of a group.
