Dear Parents of Miss Dausmann's 2017-18 Classroom,

We did it!  We completed another year of learning and laughter at Crestwood.  It's been an incredible year filled with progress and growth.  I am beyond grateful for each of my 22 students and the experiences we shared together this school year.  I know our 5th grade year is going to be even more special. 

Here are a few great summer resources for continued learning.  Please take a peek and encourage your child to use these throughout the summer.

Sincerely,
Katie Dausmann

Noah works to complete his Headlines project.  

Students worked a project that combined Writing, Math, and Art skills.  

Kids received an equation for each math operation (+, -, x, /) then wrote a news story that matched the equation.  

Emma gets her headlines and news stories glued onto her newspaper.
