How do your students learn best?
As you continue to create engaging and meaningful lessons/activities for your students, are you keeping in mind their different learning styles?
Remember that all of our students are different and learn best in many different ways. Here is an article and video for a quick refresh on the different learning styles that our students use while in our classrooms.

When is the last time that you included motion in your lessons? When is the last time that you included videos in your lesson or visually demonstrated something? Continue to push yourself as an educator to meet your students needs.
Honors Breakfast Schedule
This week we will be having our 7th and 8th grade honor breakfast. 7th grade will be on Wednesday and 8th grade will be on Thursday. Just a reminder that we will switch NE and 1st period on these days.
Goals and Rewards
Continue to meet with students to discuss their 2nd nine week grades and goals during NE. Set their goals for 3rd nine weeks and fill out the goal tracking sheet on Sharepoint.
Collaboration
Collaboration will be with your team tomorrow morning. One item to discuss is Martin Luther King day on next week. If you remember last year we started celebrating this day by having a day of service. I will leave it up to each team this year if you want to do that with your students again. I know our students and community enjoyed it last year!
If you're out, turn it out
Keep that saying in mind with your energy consumption. If you are out of your room, turn the lights off. Before you leave each evening take a look around and turn off power strips, TVs, monitors, etc...
