Time Management...........
"This is the key to time management - to see the value of every moment."
-Menchem Mendel Schneerson
Teacher Workday:
Teachers I know that some you arrive early every morning to prepare for your day and the time you take to prepare each day is much appreciated. However, please remember that your workday is from 8:30am - 4:00pm.(7.5 hrs). I know at times that things may arise but if you need to leave early for any reason please let me know.
Restroom Breaks
Teachers we are losing a major amount of instructional time each day when we take restroom breaks. If you are going to take class restroom breaks consider doing yhe following:
Sight word cards
Vocabulary cards
Math Flash Cards
Dismissal Time:
With the exception of our "Center" students we are lining students up too early for dismissal. We should start lining students up at 3:40pm. We have to make sure that we are maximizing our instructional time with our students. There should be no students lined up or in the hallways prior to 3:40. First floor students should be dismissed at 4:42 with the second floor dismissing at 3:45.
