Great Things I Noticed this Week:
*Classroom teachers reinforcing the whole body listening from guidance lessons--using the same language, pointing to the posters, and I heard a few students singing the focus listening song in a class. Keep it up!!
*Staff collaborating/problem-solving coverage for students and an entire class (yes...2 different situations and staff pulling together...we are a TEAM!)
*Students reading many different books about spiders to write their own informational books...the low buzz of chatter between partners was incredible to hear as they kept excitedly sharing the interesting facts they were finding (although I was creeped out by all their spider info!)
*The folks from US Cellular said they were SO impressed with our students in the assembly in comparison to other schools they have been to. Our students behave SO well from the model that you set for them. Thank you!
Upcoming Events:
Monday - Optional EP training (for SLO/survey support/work-you can use the time/space to get it done!)
Tuesday - I will be out of the building
Wednesday - Picture Makeup Day
Thursday - I will be out of the building
"Nuts & Bolts" Notes:
*Thank you so much for your continued efforts to report "all here" attendance. Our attendance rates are looking AWESOME, even with all the illnesses we've had. See below for last year's attendance rate vs this year so far (rate is what % has each student been in school. Ex: If a new student has been enrolled for 10 days, but only attends 8 days, she would be at 80%):
Blogs, Tweets & Pins...Oh My!!!
*See the Small - great reminder. What small wins are happening around you that you might not be noticing, because you're not looking for them?
