Imagination Station: 2nd grade
End of 3rd Quarter Celebrations
Celebrations:
- Team collaboration and support - it is good to see teachers planning, supporting, and helping one another on a daily basis. It is also evident that you are on the same page with lesson planning when I visit classrooms doing similar topics and work. There are also teams doing flexible sharing of students to better support the students - NICE WORK!
- Doing extra work and putting in extra effort to communicate more with parents on the ABCs - I think that added information and accountability to the parents have helped.
- MOY data was all trending in a positive manner - thanks to YOU!
