Maverick Minutes
February 8, 2016
I hope you had a great super bowl weekend! Valentine parties are this Friday so be sure you have clearly communicated what you want parents to bring and do (food, valentines, boxes, etc.) If you haven't used Remind to send a picture of your kids working in class, it is a great way to show parents what they are doing!
What have you done in planning to move your rigor and relevance focus forward? Are you planning with the rubrics to make your lessons move out of Quad A every day? Keep reaching for the goal of having Quad D moments every day in every subject! I have attached some documents below that may help you!

Rigor and Relevance Ideas!
Vocabulary Instructional Focus 2015-16
Our new word this week is AUDACIOUS. Words for next two weeks are below if you need a preview (weeks 14 and 15).
Praises!
Great job encouraging your kids to bring books! We are gathering and sorting them under the stairs if you didn't bring your yet. We have lots of classes that earned a reward for gathering 100 on their own! Be sure and share a picture and "thanks" with your parents through Remind!
Reminders!
