All that and a Bag of Chips!
Ms. Garland for helping PTA collecting box tops, earning the campus $165. Thank you!
Ms. Barringer for handling discipline immediately!
Ms. Winners and Ms. Cessnun for creating such a welcoming environment for our new student!
EEI Science Training & $75 Voucher
If our campus opts in for co-teaching, we are able to become EEI Certified and may have an opportunity to get a project funded on our campus. This would be great with already having a Real School Garden!
How to purchase items with your $75 voucher

1. Please review the 4 websites, before submitting your evaluation.
2. Copy and paste items in a word document so that you can paste it back on the voucher.
3. As soon as you submit your evaluation, you are required input your selection, which is why you should paste items on a separate document so you have as a reference.
4. Specific directions are also provided on the website.
Remember to choose hands on materials or literacy material. This is due by January 19th.

Preparing our Students for the 21st Century
As you know, before the Christmas break we worked on our social skill ‘how to respond to an adult’. We will continue that skill into next week. Please replay the attached video….a few guiding questions for you to ask your students after watching the clip:
1. How do you think adults will feel if you respond using ‘ma’am’ and ‘sir’ when asked a question?
2. Where are places outside of school you think this would be a good practice for?
3. Who are people at Junkins you can get in the habit of responding to in this way?
4. How can this help you as you get older in dealing with adults when trying to get a job or interview for a college?
M-O-Y Assessments
DRA : (Students below reading level) Please let Stephanie know if you need her help or DRA kits!!!
M-STAAR: Window opens January 11th and will close February 12th. Please contact Rochelle if you need assistance.
Intervention Plans for Failing Students
Remember to submit the intervention plan for students that failed the 3rd six week to Ms. Winners so that she updates the binder. This is also a great talking piece when you meet with parents for conferences.
Work Room!
I do need your help with the work room. Please, if you borrow appliances, do not leave them on the counter. Put them away. Please keep our common areas clean. Remember, if there are any cleanliness/maintenance issues you notice, let us know immediately!
