Teacher Practices
Teachers,
This Monday our ILT team will be meeting at the TRC for PD and to discuss and plan our focus for the year. Our discussions and planning will be centered on our Theory of Action: If teachers work as collaborative teams to focus on using a variety of data points and assessments that drive the development of standard driven differentiate instruction and practices, then all students will achieve at a higher level and the achievement gap will continue to close.
As our ILT begins our conversation on differentiation: How is differentiation part of your planning and integrated within your daily lessons?

Yvette's Corner
T and W at Kettering & Naples Interim Site
First up from the counselor’s office:
Parent/Teacher Conferences in November: Please feel free to invite me to any parent/teacher conference if you would like me present and foresee a SST in the future. Remember I am only at Kettering T and W. You received a Parent Conference folder with the items required to discuss, sign, and place back into folder. The only LBUSD Promotion Standards is Math Facts...for now! 😊Please show off all your interventions to your parents and ease their mind about progress and development for children this early in the year. If they have concerns, then let parents know that YOU will refer their student to the SST to discuss next steps. DO NOT encourage parents to write a letter to have their child assessed. Extra parent/teacher conference papers will be in the apple room in the file box. Please return folder to Yvette to hold until your March conferences. Thank you!
>Personal Growth Groups: please send me names of students you feel would benefit from a six week Personal Growth Group and WHY. I am hoping to do a boy group and a girl group. We will work on social skills, organization skills, grit, perseverance, etc. These students would need to work WITH their peers as opposed to 1x1 counseling.
>Mentor Monday. START meeting with your mentee MONDAY, OCT. 28, then every last Monday of each month throughout the year. Follow the Mentor Monday booklet and don't forget to complete the Pre-survey FIRST. Remember, you can technically meet whenever and however you can, but please meet at least 1x/month, preferably on the last Monday of each month. Please notify the mentee’s teacher if you would like to meet during YOUR lunch time. We will have a holiday Mentor/Mentee party in December to eat, wear our holiday hats, and hang out as a group. This picture will surly make the Press-Telegram.
> FEP FOLLOW-UPS: If you have FEP Reclassified kiddos in your class, then you willreceive a follow-up form in your box this week. Please complete and return to me. I have to now conduct EIGHT FEP Follow-ups within FOUR years of a student being reclassified. THANK YOU VERY MUCHO!!
>GATE Screening: GATE post-screen (second round): Nov. 4-20. I will send out a schedule and list of students late October for this round. I have a couple of first round make-ups to complete on Tuesday.
>SBAC Interim Assessments may start as early as Sept. 16. See email sent Friday regarding the video to watch to activate your account since we missed the first email. Please follow directions to create your new F#ncy!8 password and save it in a secret place. You will need to sign an electronic SBAC Affidavit once you click on the green TOMS button. Once you create your new password you can begin accessing the CAASPP Interim Assessments and Reporting System, as well as the extensive resources available in the Digital Library.
>SST information on students live in LROI. LROI>Applications>Student Study Team>search student (you may need to toggle to ‘18-’19 or ‘17-’18 school year to see previous SSTs). So far we have had three SSTs and two 504 Plan Meetings. Our school psychologist has already signed three Initial Assessment Plans for kiddos we had SSTs last Spring.
>Counselor Referral Forms: forms are located on my door. Teachers, staff, parents, and students may complete a form and place in my box. Once I am back on campus I will attend to the referral forms asap. :-)
>SBAC/CAA/CAST test window: April 20 - May 29. A specific schedule will be coming soon to a theater near you. ;-D
>Sanford Harmony: How are your SH lessons coming along? Let me know if you would like me to conduct a couple of lessons...I am available after lunch or anytime starting Oct. 20 as I have to get past GATE testing.
