We love our aides! Berkeley aides are simply the best and we appreciate their hard work and efforts to help our children succeed!
Thank you Mrs. Petersen for coordinating the Seizure/First Aid presentations to fifth grade students during Epilepsy Awareness Month.
First and second year clarinet players enjoy their practice and lessons with Mr. Barbieri, as our musicians learn more skills and practice their performance goals.

Thank you Ms. Dempsey from NW Bergen Regional Health Commission and Mrs. Petersen, Berkeley School Nurse, for helping our kindergarteners understand healthy eating habits and overall nutrition.
Mrs. Seigle and her first grade class are in the immersion phase of Writer's Workshop, learning about 'How to' books. Students will soon write and illustrate their own books.
Berkeley Staff wishes everyone a safe and fun Halloween!

Thank you to our guest readers and Mrs. Brennan and Mrs. Portelli in making our day so special! Keep checking back for more pictures today.
Mrs. Houck and some first grade friends use various Orton Gillingham strategies for reading. Finger tapping is always fun to use with short vowels!
Berkeley Fifth Graders held a retirement party for the word "said". Each student came to the party prepared to say goodbye to "said" while welcoming more descriptive dialogue tags to use in their writing!
Happy Wellness Wednesday! Balancing healthy food choices for lunch from home or school is another way we can keep our minds and bodies strong.
Our fifth graders enjoy their kindergarten buddies outside of the classroom, too...recess is always more fun with a buddy!
District Grade 1 teachers are enjoying Day #3 Training of Responsive Classroom, which includes child development and engaging learning environments. By November, all K-5 teachers will have completed Day #3 and look forward to the final day of training in January 2023.
Mrs. Percarpio's class and I had a great time during their Morning Meeting. We played "Alibi"; I was the investigator trying to solve the mystery....which, after some time, I finally figured out! Thank you again to Mrs. Percarpio and her class.
