Meet and Greet August 11, 2016

Mimi says, "Please come to Westport Heights on Thursday, August 11, from 10 to 11 and meet the Fabulous First Grade Teachers: Ms. Mangos, Ms. Recendez and Ms. Iguchi!" 

Mimi is Ms. Mangos' little diva!

Ms. Mangos got in her Time Machine and traveled around the world this summer.

Here she is in the Tardis, London, England.

Ms. Mangos on the 86th Floor of the Empire State Building!  "I was dizzy the whole time," she said.

Looking Uptown, with lovely, green Central Park.  She stayed at 64th and Lexington!  

I love you Big Apple!

Give us your poor, your tired, your huddled masses yearning to breath free!

Lady Liberty!  We spent a day on Liberty Island and Ellis Island.  

In the 1990's Ms. Mangos bought a space on the Wall of Honor at Ellis Island for her dad Michael S. Mangos.  She cried when she saw his name!  

Ms. Mangos' Note to Parents

My biggest passion in education is fostering a love of science and reading in my students.  I love plants and animals (and travel of course!) and the garden outside my classroom is an incubator for many of the experiments we do.  We have Science Thursday where we do an experiment a week.  Science, Technology, Reading, Writing, and Math are an important part of my classroom.

To learn more about me and my teaching style, please take a look at the blog archive.  It's a great gallery of pictures of what we did last year in 1st and 2nd grade.  I look forward to working with each of my students and their families as I gear up for an exciting year of learning with my first graders.

Bon Voyage!
