Back in the saddle!

What a busy couple of weeks at Albert Bridge.   Friday was a Kale Smoothies Day! Some students don't look so sure Mrs. Chick should be adding that green stuff to the fruit and yogurt. With a little help from Mr. Butler, though, the student might just enjoy the superfood!

If you would like to try a Kale smoothie at home, just blend some of your favorite fruits and yogurt with a bit of kale (off the stem).  We used Bananas and strawberries with vanilla yogurt and some orange juice! Delicious and Nutritious! 

Winter Break!

Our learning community has worked diligently over the past four months.  Enjoy a safe and memory filled break.

Exemplary Scientists at ABS

This past week, our 5th and 6th graders represented Albert Bridge in an exemplary manner!  They were poised, prepared, and displayed well thought out projects for the Windsor Science Fair.  Job well done.

Hello Empathic Students,

Welcome back! We are so glad you are here.  We have a lot to be thankful for and during the month of December we should take some time to consider others and how they are feeling, too.  When we are able to understand and share someone else’s emotions, we are showing empathy.  Sometimes, by being empathic, we might try to help.  I would like to encourage us all to practice this skill over the next 3 weeks.  One way we can help or be of service to others is to share what we have.  The local food self is very low and we can help by bringing in peanut butter, boxed macaroni and cheese, canned fruits, vegetables, and soups! 

Empathically Yours,

Mrs. Aldrich

Thanksgiving ~A Time To Serve

November is a good time to recognize how we might serve others.  Many of you have brought thoughtful ideas to our discussions about how Veteran’s Day and Thanksgiving share the common thread of Service.  During this Holiday season, take some time to show you care by sharing your skills, time, talents, or just offering a helping hand to someone else.  Be prepared to discuss your experiences!

In the Service of Our School,

Mrs. Aldrich

Veteran's Day~Giving Thanks for Service

November 4, 2013

Hello Community Servants,

This Month we will focus on Service. On Monday, November 11th we will recognize and thank the brave men and women who have served in our Armed Forces.  There are other forms of service.  Con you think of a way you have served others?
