Welcome to Team Pine!

We have lots of fun and exciting things to learn and explore this year.

In Team Pine, we believe every child can grow and thrive in a positive, safe learning environment. Our class is built on the core values of Safe, Ready, and Respect, which guide everything we do each day.

Our Classroom Values

• Safe: We ensure everyone feels secure, both physically and emotionally. We look out for each other and make choices that help keep our classroom a peaceful space where everyone is free to learn.

• Ready: Being ready to learn means coming to school prepared and open to new experiences. Our team knows the importance of being focused, organized, and engaged in every lesson.

• Respect: We treat each other with kindness, valuing everyone’s opinions and ideas. Respect helps us build strong relationships, creating a space where everyone feels valued and heard.

Developing Perseverance and Resilience

In Team Pine, we celebrate the journey of learning! We believe that success isn’t just about getting things right the first time—it’s about persevering through challenges and building resilience. We encourage each other to never give up, even when things feel difficult, and to keep trying until we achieve our goals.

Our Dream: D.A.R.E.

At Team Pine, we aim to D.A.R.E. to dream big! Our vision for success is captured in these qualities:

• Daring: We are bold in our thinking and confident to try new things, even if they seem challenging.
• Resilient: When things get tough, we bounce back stronger, ready to face the next challenge.
• Enthusiastic: We approach our learning with excitement and energy, knowing that a positive attitude makes everything more enjoyable.
• Ambitious: We set high goals for ourselves and work hard to reach them, knowing that we are capable of greatness.
• Motivated: We are driven to learn, grow, and succeed. Every day is an opportunity to improve and do our best.

Together, we create a classroom full of laughter, learning, and limitless potential. We are Team Pine, and we are ready to achieve great things!
