The third-grade students in Mrs. Jimenez and Mrs. DiSanto's class at Albany Avenue wrapped up their Social Studies unit with a fantastic research project. Students collaborated in groups to research a region, exploring its climate, economy (including natural resources), animals, and landforms. Then they showcase their findings through detailed Google Slides presentations set up around the room. As they toured the various exhibits, students stopped to recognize their peers' efforts by leaving positive Post-it note compliments on each desk.

Young readers at Albany Avenue are taking their first big step during literacy centers! Mrs. Genovese's first graders are busy starting to identify letter sounds, exploring digraphs (such as sh, ch, and th), figuring out sentence order, practicing trick words, and beginning to build their independence as readers. We are so proud of the focus they bring to every activity.

Miss Leon’s first graders at Albany Avenue got to pick out their very own pumpkin, which was the perfect size for little hands. Seeing their excitement and big smiles while searching for the perfect one was so sweet! They immediately got to work, decorating their pumpkins, with adorable inspiration from the book, "It's Pumpkin Day, Mouse."
