Collaborative Planning
This week, we will be taking the collaborative planning schedule for a test drive. Ms. High sent out a draft schedule for each of you to review to find any discrepancies. Please follow the schedule that was provided to you during last week's planning meeting. If you find any problems with the schedule this week, please let me know.
During your collaborative planning time, I will be utilizing the first hour for job-embedded training on Depth of Knowledge (DOK). The second hour of your planning will encompass each of you sharing with your team what standards/skills will be taught for the week of Oct. 26th. You should have any assessment and/or resources to share with your teammates for the content area for which you plan. Please come prepared. Assessments will be reviewed together as a team.

I have received some common questions from some of you that I would like to clarify for everyone.
1- Lesson plans are to be uploaded to TKES every Thursday for the entire school year.
2- Fundraisers: Jean fundraisers will not granted as frequently as they were last year and will only be for adults, not students. They will be approved on a case by case basis. I encourage you to be creative in finding other options for fundraisers. For example, the fall festival is next week. Consider possibly setting up a fundraising "booth" that day to raise money as well. All ideas for fundraising must be approved prior to the fundraiser beginning.
3- October 26th is professional development day. No students will be at school.
4- CCRPI Career Lessons: Please complete the state CCRPI lessons and submit your attendance sheets to me before the Thanksgiving break.
