- The kids really knew how to explain what they were doing!
- Amazing school!
Events Next Week:

"Nuts & Bolts" Notes:
*Tuesday Grade Level PLC Meetings: please plan to talk about 4th quarter plans for literacy mini-lessons, pensieve documentation, WIN progress/planning, and any other curriculum discussions you need to have.
*We will be starting a building level tech leaders team. This team will meet monthly (more/less if needed) and will serve as the team to learn new tech info to share with staff, but also to share our tech needs with Mark/Brad. Please let me know if you are interested.
*When you have time, please download the app Photocard (there's a free and a lite version, but they're both free). This app will be shared at our April 14th staff meeting.
Blogs, Pins and Tweets...Oh My!
*What Students Remember Most About Teachers
