BUCCANEER BRAVOS
- Thank you to each of our teams for using COOPERATION to work through RTI-2 Kickoff! High-five to Meagan Allred who will work with each of your teams to accomplish teacher understanding and success through the process!
- WOOT for EVERYONE who made testing happen this week! It started with Jaime and Kevin's careful planning and organization and was followed through with everyone who tested, proctored, endured schedule changes or was quiet in the hallway!
The Voyage
We'll show the video after announcements - but if you feel like you would rather show it later b/c of testing, you can log into the portal and show it a different time on Monday. Some time during the week, have a class meeting focused on the verbiage in the snipping below or utilize the full lesson plan linked below. *NOTE: The lesson linked below contains more than you are expected to teach, BUT it has great points.
Expectations for the week:
Recognize and target talk students who show cooperation by showing teamwork.
