First Week a Success!
Thanks to ALL of you for a wonderful first week of school! Other than our first couple of days car pick-up trials, everything worked VERY WELL and went super smoothly! The latter part of the week car pick-up went well, too! I know the specials splitting has been complicated at some grade levels, but having smaller groups in our specials areas is so much better, especially in gym! This is the only way to keep Katie from having 45 kids in some of her classes, so thanks for working with us on these groupings.
Recess Times
Please make sure to adhere to your assigned recess times. If your class earns an additional recess, please come look at my master schedule and find a time that works when no one else is outside. One grade level is already a huge crowd on the playground.
PBIS Rewards
The kids have been super excited to report to me that they are earning LOTS of Golden Tickets! Some of them don't seem to know what they are earning toward. Look at the menu and choose something so they know how many they have to earn for that first reward. Also, don't forget to decorate your flag to hang outside your door so it's ready when you get that first ribbon! As soon as those ribbons arrive, we will probably give some punctuality awards! :-)
Goals....
Make sure you are thinking about what you want your goals to be. Look over your student data so you know specific areas of focus. Get with Erin to get on your evaluator's calendar soon.
Callibration Walkthroughs
Our callibration walkthroughs will begin this week! Remember that these are to help Sandra and I make sure we are using the new form as it is expected, so you may or may not see them come through for you to view depending on how we do! :-)
