SUBMIT TODAY to Lesson Plan Folder-SLO Progress Check
Remember: As a team develop your common student check-in activity. After administering the common activity, meet as a team to discuss student work and to rate your students on where they fall within the Targeted Student Profile (TSP). Record this progress check on the Student Growth Tracker Form under Column G: Progress Check-in #2.
We will discuss your SLO Growth Goal and Progress at your Summative Conference!
GT Hour OPTION from Mr. Galloway
Teachers can login to EduHero and click the “Gifted & Talented” link on the menu to access the G/T courses. Each course is worth 1 hour. After completion of the total number of hours they wish to take, the teacher can send me a screen shot of their “My Learning” under their profile. I will issue them a certificate for every 6 hours. If they took 3 hours with Region 20 and then 3 more hours with EduHero I can combine that for a total of 6 hours. These courses can count as an update or for Days 4 or 5. Here are the list of the approved G/T courses in Eduhero.

AP Corner: Behavior
As we near Spring Break, we tend to see a spike in behaviors. Here are a few places that we need to remain extra vigilant and reinforce our expectations:
· Restrooms
· Cafeteria- Paras, please continue to actively monitor students by
· Recess- Please remember to circulate and actively monitor student interactions
· Car line- Please remind students that when they’re sitting in gym they must remain quiet, so the teachers can hear the names being called over the radio. Students should be sitting in their grade level lines and facing forward quietly.
As always, we are here to support you. Thank you for all you do! If you think of anything else, please do not hesitate to reach out!
Cross the Line
