Great Things I Noticed This Week:
*Students keeping mindful about the Nice Bucket challenge throughout the building (I love hearing them remind each other about the day's challenge!)
*Students making New Year's Resolutions, Reading Resolutions and "Toasting" in the new year to celebrate others!
*Students looking through writing folders and examining their own pieces of writing to decide what they deemed as worthy of being published...they are truly budding authors!
*Several of you have been sharing great things happening in your classrooms on your Facebook pages...if we don't tell our story then other people will and they don't always know the great things to tell!
Events Next Week: start of MAP testing window
Monday - Elementary Professional Learning meeting 3:05 in IMC (agenda below in "Nuts & Bolts")
Friday - Staff Social (3rd/Mane/Cleary)
"Nuts & Bolts" Notes:
*For Monday's mtg agenda:
1. tech talk on Kahoot
2. Moby Max/Front Row discussions
3. book study
Please bring your devices and High Impact Instruction book. Also be prepared to share how you're using either Moby Max or Front Row in your classroom. As for the book study, we'll be making new groups for the next sections to read.
*Set your calendars: the 4th annual (I think it's the 4th) Art Show will be on Tuesday, March 10th 4:00-6:00pm. Mr. Mane will send out details later about classroom art work to add to it.
