Student Council Holiday Weekly News!
Ho Ho Holiday Friday!
LCAP Goal 3 - Student Council Art Class - Angelina & Chidalu teach young artists how to draw a Holiday Tree!
LCAP Goal 3 Social Emotional Learning - 'Old Friends, New Friends'
Student Ambassador Faith Osborn reads to students virtually after school. The little students were captivated by the way she can make a book come alive! That is how learning happens!
LCAP Goal 4 Parent Involvement - Winter Strings Concert
South Monterey County Strings Maestro Alyze Rabideau and the Festive Strings Students
LCAP 2 and 5 - Engaging Students and Checking for Understanding
John Hattie, Doug Fisher, and Nancy Frey shared some quick ideas for student engagement and quick teacher assessments during a recent webinar. As we take a Winter Break, we want to ponder how to continue to raise the rigor and engage students in critical thinking when we return to virtual learning in the New Year 2021!
Math Talks and students explaining their thinking and logic is powerful learning! Peer instruction is a huge boost to learning.
Some teachers like to use certain cards for student responses while they are at home. The students are ready for anything the teacher needs them to do.
There are so many clever ideas. In this case, a teacher got ahold of a bunch of unused CD cases. Putting red on one side and green on the other allows students to hold up and show their response for easy viewing by the teacher.
LCAP 5 Hillary Chambers is Selected by Screencastify as one of their highest video producers in the country for volume, quality, and involving student learners!
LCAP Goals 2 and 4 - Student Learning Materials and 'Fun Stuff'
Students and parents were excited to have another drive-by learning materials distribution by our 1st and 3rd-grade teachers. It was fun for the teachers to see students and say hi to their parents. The principal had fun watching the teachers and students having fun!
