Hampton Bays Middle School
Monday Memo #15
Finish 2016 Strong!
Dear T.E.A.M. :
There is still much to do, this busy last week before the December Break. Before we head out to spend time with family and friends this holiday season, let's use this week to show our students what they mean to us. Consider incorporating one of these ideas into your advisory this week, in honor of December's word of the month, Generosity.
1. Discuss with your students... http://www.teachthought.com/critical-thinking/26-questions-every-student-should-be-able-to-answer/ .
2. Kid President Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hzpj4M2fBsU&index=6&list=PLzvRx_johoA-YabI6FWcU-jL6nKA1Um-t

Is there a strategy, tool, or resource you've used recently with students? Share it with me and we can share it in Faculty-wide, through our Monday Memo (credit optional). Also, be sure to check out the 7 resources below, to help support us, as learners.
Thanks for all you do, for our middle school students and our program.
Sincerely,
Dennis
