I just want you all to know how very much I appreciate each and every one of you! You make this school such a joyful place to be, and I so very impressed with the way our children are welcomed into your classroom. You have all done an incredible job of creating a warm, inviting atmosphere for kiddos and building a community of learners in these few short days. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for being so AWESOME!
Thank you so much for your flexibility this week as we worked out the kinks with our schedules. Just wanted to keep you all in the know on a few updates that have been made:
- 1st grade:A lunch swap and a recess time change. Please reference the schedule in the drive which has the most up to date information.
- Dismissal: A HUGE thank you to Carla who will be our name writer on the Twilight lot. This change was made so we could really utilize the least amount of staff at dismissal and be able to rotate jobs so the same person is not stuck with the job year after year.
- Have updates? If you tweak the times, please be sure they are correct in the drive.
Professional Growth Plan: Please use this document as you get started working on your PGP and scheduling a meeting with Marco or Angie by the end of September.
Reminder for Grades K-5: Many of you have already completed your on demand writing assessments. This data can help you as you get to know your writers.
Reminder for Grades 3-5:
- Galileo: The Galileo cheat can be found here. The window opens next week. Please refer to the computer cart calendar shared by Liz Keutzer. Your student logins were in your mailbox. We will work with this data during PLC’s.
- ALEKS: Please finish ASAP as we will use this data for math intervention.
Learning Lab Agenda: Just reminder we will meet on Thursday for Learning Labs. Please take a look at the agenda as we will be meeting in different locations.
Room Reservation Sheet: Please use this google form to make a room reservation. The person calling the meeting should be the one to complete this sheet and request coverage for the classroom teacher. This will help to streamline the process.
Flyervision Shout Outs: Just a reminder if you want Marco or I to make any announcements, please use this link. It is also on the blog.
Staff Lounge: Just wanted to let you know we will be holding class in the teachers' lounge daily from 2:40-3:10. Please adjust your ice/soda schedules accordingly.
Here is a great video to spark a conversation about being proactive. You can have students put a thumbs up for “proactive” behavior and a thumbs down for “reactive” behavior.
