Friday Focus - May 1st




Great Things I Noticed this Week:

  • Introduction to an infographics project in 3rd grade with the assistance of Mrs. Porter. 
  • Students explaining how they made a volcano and then showing off it's eruption in science. 
  • Students collaborating in partners to create "I spy" books (using Book Creator app) to give to their 4K reading buddies. 
  • 1st Graders rehearsing readers theater with amazing expression (to be performed at Grandparents Day).
  • Students thinking of the best word (Bootcamp strategy) and giving evidence for why with this exciting picture: 


Events Next Week:
Monday - Mentors/Mentees Meeting 3:05 in the IMC
Tuesday - Mid-Quarter reports should go home (yes, it's already that time!)

"Nuts & Bolts" Notes:
*Staff Meeting added to the calendar: Monday, May 18th 3:05 regarding student iPad transition for the end of the school year. 
*Our next staff meeting on May 11 will include our book study discussion. If you forgot what chapters you were reading:
Group 1: chapter 3 Formative Assessment
Group 2: chapter 7 Stories
Group 3: chapter 12 Freedom within Form
*Tuesday, May 12th is the FFA Petting Zoo-info to come from Mrs. Wehner


Blogs, Tweets & Pins...Oh My!!
*Just in case you forgot, the Interactive Cafe Menu is filled with tons of online resources to help you with your literacy lesson planning.
* Apr 28
If the hardest working and most talking person in the room is the teacher, there might need to be a reassessment of whats happening.
