CAUTIONS
Please make sure you are sending students with a NOTE to the nurse. This includes students coming from lunch and specials. They really shouldn't be going from these areas unless they are injured or throwing up. Chances are if they've been all day with their teacher and not needed to go the nurse, they don't really need to go then either.... but IF THEY DO, please send a pass.
If your partner teacher or a teacher on your team has a substitute, please check in with them to see that they have everything they need for the day, especially if it's a last minute sub.
COMPLETIONS
VOTERS OATH: NBISD is asking employees to make a commitment to vote in the upcoming primary election as well as the November elections. There is a link to an OATH that came through an Employee e-Blast on January 27th. I've signed it to help our district reach a 75% commitment--HAVE YOU??
I would love for some of you to try out the Google Card boards... I'll spend some time app searching and let you know what I find. The ones I know of already are "Titans of Space" which is a tour of the solar system, "Aquarium VR" which takes a journey under the sea, "Into the Human Body" which explores body systems..... and there are MANY more!!
We are in need of empty milk jugs to use for watering until we get jugs!!
I was ALSO supposed to include information about the 7 plots. There are 7 because we have 7 different grade levels. The plan is for each grade level to be responsible for one plot! Katie has requested donations of a variety of seeds. I'd like to see this worked into your science plans to spend time one day planting, then put some students on a watering schedule. Katie has a contact with the Master Gardeners who is happy to be here the day you plant to guide your class!!
