Hawthorne Happenings
Week of 2/27 - 3/3
Hello all,
Another great week is behind us. The second trimester has ended. It seems like there is still so much of the school year left, but when you think about it there really isn't. We have 4 weeks until Spring Break, then 3 weeks until our long East weekend, and then about 5 weeks until the school year comes to a close. Summer will be here before we know it. It's time to dig in a make sure this year ends on a high note. Here are some highlights from the last week:
- MAP Data - On Tuesday, I attended a MAP Data Workshop in Belle Plaine. I'll admit that I am not very well-versed in MAPs, which is why I took the opportunity to attend this PD. I'm happy to report that I discovered many new reports that I believe may be helpful. I will be sharing these new reports during one of our upcoming staff meetings.
- Reading to incoming Little Chiefs - In preparation for Kindergarten Round Up and next school year, I have been going around to each of the 4 year old programs in town to read to them and introduce myself. It was surely a highlight for me to see the faces of the students who may be headed our way. I will continue to read to 4 year old programs this week and I look forward to seeing them again next week at Round Up.
