Week 28

 

Happy Friday Team...It's time to celebrate!

You made it...you did it...congratulations!  Now, it's time for you to enjoy a well deserved break!  Thank you so much for all of your hard work these last few weeks.  It has been noticed.  Please relax, rest, rejuvenate, and have some fun and we will return for the last push to summer. 🩷

When we return we will be entering the last 10 weeks of school and testing season!  As you know, this time will go like a whirlwind, and it is very important that set your classroom and students up for success.  

As such, I strongly recommend you go back to the "beginning" as you welcome your students back to class.  Procedures and Routines  are EVERYTHING... If students behaviors do not match your expectations, make sure you have them re-do and repeat until they do, and as often as you need.   

Just remember, on Tuesday, April 7th, you are setting your classroom and students' behaviors for the remainder of the year.  

Week 28 Instruction

 

When we return we will be in Week 28 for instruction.  Even though we are rigorously preparing for our testing season, it is very important that we maintain our scope and sequence without deviation, and that we are up to date with the weekly Common Assessments. Please make sure that this is done.

MSTEP Mondays

We don't have many Mondays left before your MSTEP testing begins.  Please make sure that you are utilizing this time effectively in preparation for testing.

03's and GLTs

GLTs and 03s will be held as scheduled.  03's during these next 10 weeks will be very purposeful as we take time together to reflect over this past year and begin to make preparations for the upcoming school year.

Sub Plans

It is very important that you have sub plans, work and all of the necessary documents ready to go.  With the uptake in illness, these are necessary for last minute absences.  It is not fair to your teammates to have to scramble to make copies, etc. to ensure the consistency of instruction in your classroom.  Please make sure, if this applies to you, that you have sub plans and work ready upon our return.
