Thank you sunshine committee for organizing Cato's event!
Reflection on what went well last week (school-wide)
Our walkthrough team with Sondra Aguilera observed: schedules and objectives posted and students independently reading.
Challenges
The hallway started to get a little hectic around 1:00. Please see my separate email about bathroom use.
Deliverable(s) for the week
Substitute folder: Please have one ready to give to Evodia .
PLC during Fitness
Rachel or Brian will visit you at PLC to check in about progress monitor binder.
Instructional Tips
Please see this great website OUSD had put together on balanced literacy :
Behavioral Tips
Don't give extra chances. I caught myself saying this at lunch : "Table ___ you know I will have to turn your cone to yellow if you are not at level 2!" Why is that wrong? If the expectation is level 2, I should have just changed their cone right away. Otherwise there will be 10 steps on my hierarchy!
NO Wednesday PD this week. Suggestion: see if you need to test SRI on anyone absent. You could get them from after school program.
