Action Items
Be Mindful of testing locations by observing signs and identifying routes in the hallways to avoid these locations and to be extremely quiet when you pass them. While this is important for the students we are walking with, it is also important for the adults to maintain a quiet presence in the hallways.
Instruction that is tightly aligned to assessment. Instruction at this point is targeted to your classroom and targeted to specific students.
Keep Teaching--we are teachers until June 13. Every instructional moment counts. The teacher who receives your student next year will appreciate the work you put in this year.
