Learning Walks on MONDAY
Our final learning walk opportunity of the school year is on MONDAY! Please remember that it's only 30 minutes of your planning time, and you can choose your 2 classrooms, and you are only giving positive feedback to the teachers. Meet outside the SD room at the following times if you're interested: 9am; 9:45am; 11:30; 1:30. Hope to see you there! Such a great opportunity to learn from one another!
NC TEST - Tuesday
Please remember that we will all be doing the tutorial with students on TUESDAY, May 12th in Homeroom! It should not take long if you take some time beforehand to read the directions that have been provided.
Early Release on WEDNESDAY
We will have a busy ER day on Wednesday after students go home, so please come prepared to do our final REFRESH professional development of the year, EOG test training, and the health wellness showcase!
Reminder of laptop check - due on FRIDAY!
It is imperative that we all meet this deadline in order to make sure that all laptops are ready before testing. If you need help getting this complete, please send me an email and we can arrange for an assistant to come to your room. We recommend you check 5-7 laptops daily in homeroom. If you need ANY help, feel free to ask Ms. Baker, and she will get someone to you!

EOY Calendar and Reminders
Grades due date has had to be adjusted to June 3rd due to the laptop collection and switch for both students and staff. Please plan ahead for this! Also, we are in process of finalizing the calendar for those last few days, so you will get that as soon as possible!
Cool Tool!
Ms. Field's Team Time class is doing a blog, and the kids are very excited! Teachers, feel free to comment, participate in the discussions, and share as you see fit. It would be awesome to show the kids how much this can spread!
