Tiger Tid-Bits
- Mr. Gee and Mr. Eytchison's Passion Projects are centered around the turmoil in Syria. Students selected this project after watching CNN News. They have decided to host an Art Show coming soon. What a wonderful way to teach compassion and empathy to students.
- Big thanks to our SME Social Committee for our fun October events scheduled.
- PAW Prints is back in action- Traci Molloy, Jen Burrows and Katie Yarbrough will be advising this group. We can't wait to see what the first production will look like.
- Thank you for the flexibility in your daily schedules during our CELDT testing. We are the last school, let's help our CELDT Testers end on a positive note.
- Becca, Hollie and Sandra are our Illuminate ROCKSTARS! Thank you for making our training an effective and productive afternoon.
- Look at our TKers! They are already learning how to read and showing great progress. They are even using the computer keyboards and mice now! WAY TO GO!
Reminders/Announcements
- Reminder to ask your students to take off sweaters during this heat. I see so many outside wearing thick sweatshirts.
- Students need a pass to come up to your rooms before, lunch or recess time, don't forget to give those out to students.
- Need ideas on how to teach that math strategy? Check out https://learnzillion.com/ a free resource.
- Need help with classroom management? Check out Class Dojo. It now has a Dojo Class Story you can publish to when fun things happen in your class. It is a great way to communicate with families on their child's behavior, as well as share the positive. It now has a translation option. See Rebekah or Becca for more ideas.
- Need a new way to reward students without food? We now have a Wii available for your use. Check it out with Jamie, room 116/
7 Habits of Happy Kids
Habit 2 — Begin with the End in Mind
Have a Plan
I plan ahead and set goals. I do things that have meaning and make a difference. I am an important part of my classroom and contribute to my school’s mission and vision. I look for ways to be a good citizen
YOU HAVE THE MOST IMPORTANT JOB IN THE WORLD!
