Ms. Tierney

6th grade serenading Mr. Daring for his birthday!

So proud of our sixth graders! We collected 90 boxes to donate to the Interfaith Food Pantry!

Day one of VMHS Kindness Week and the most beautiful day for outdoor recess! It’s a great day to be a Viking!

VMS Yearbook is hard at work designing next year’s cover! We’re working with our publishers on a zoom call. It’s looking good, but I promised them no spoilers!! Thanks @VarsityYearbook

Taking notes is a lot more fun when you get to go on a scavenger hunt for them!

Gallery walk to share our research! Students used the databases and critical thinking skills to answer their own research questions! We covered everything, from Octopi to Eminem to 6 different dog breeds!

Shout outs to @MsTierneyELA for participating in Capture The Flag Fridays @ValhallaSchools MMSPE

Valhalla teachers, keep an eye on your email! Sixth graders are learning how to write an email and practicing by sending emails of gratitude to faculty members!

Today we spent some time practicing guided breathing and doodling! Thanks to @umichmedicine for this awesome resource to help give our central nervous systems a break after testing

Nothing like a quick @GoNoodle meditation to unwind from state testing!

Students are so engaged in their research today! We are currently in a unit called “Surviving the Unthinkable,” and today is an opportunity to research the individuals on board the famous Titanic in 1912. Thanks @VMHSLibrary for the books!

Round one of Tierney’s Typing Tournament has officially come to a close! Congratulations to all advancing teams, and best of luck to all of those who are now competing for a growth percentage! Tune in on Thursday for round 2!

Grade 6 was up and moving with a homophone review today!

Students had some time to unwind from their midterms with their independent reading book and a hot cocoa or lemonade! Afterwards, they spent some time writing about what they had read

Happy days in Starbooks Cafe!

Another year of elf on the shelfing!

An amazing day that wouldn’t be possible without the tireless efforts of @caitlynbrehm @MSarvaideo and many more!

Beautiful day of team building at Sharpe Reservation in Fishkill, NY!
