Tuesday Takeaways
Gatesville Intermediate
Week of September 13, 2021
Great things are taking place at Gatesville Intermediate as we enter the middle of the month of September. This week we are discussing the monthly character themes of Respect and Responsibility by connecting it to our lunchroom environment. We have cafeteria expectations and as we review we are sharing the ways we keep our eating space clean, how we can do our part in helping meet the expectations and sharing how it feels when we take responsibility for tasks and respect our surrounding environment. Use the talking points below to discuss the themes at home this week:
- What are some ways you clean up your environment at home?
- Discuss how keeping a clean eating space or bedroom makes you feel.
👕👕We will wear our school shirts on Mondays👕👕
🚫We have noticed a large number of toys and extra items coming to school each day. Please remember to keep these items (pop its, spinners, toys, etc...) put away during the school day. Often these items are a distraction and disruption to the learning environment.🚫
Be sure to check out our school website and Facebook page (links can be accessed at the bottom of this page). Events, pictures, and news are updated regularly. Our weekly newsletter 'Tuesday Takeaways' will also be sent out via REMIND and our other social media platforms to keep you up to date.
🚌🚌GISD Transportation has REMIND groups for each bus number/route. Important information and updates will be shared in these groups. If you need access to the join codes you can view them in our campus REMIND or contact 254-865-2062 with questions.🚌🚌
