What a great day day of professional learning that was spent on the 18th digging into CBA 2 data and collaborating with other campuses on what our next steps are with math and language arts instruction.
On February 28, 2019 we will be participating in national Digital Learning Day #DLDay. Digital Learning Day celebrates the use of digital technology in learning and in particular highlights innovative and forward-thinking use of technology for learning in the classroom. Digital Learning Day has provided a powerful venue for education leaders to highlight great teaching practice and showcase innovative teachers, leaders, and instructional technology programs that are improving student outcomes. This grassroots effort blossomed into a massive nationwide celebration as teachers realized that Digital Learning Day is not about technology, it’s about learning! We are asking all of our teachers to join tens of thousands of educators and students across the country in showcasing how technology can improve student learning as part of National Digital Learning Day (#DLDay). Check out some resources for classroom-based activities for #DLDay at https://sites.google.com/leanderisd.org/digitalsafety/digital-learning-day Please post your activities on social media using the #DLDay #EngageLISD #LISDParkside and tagging @Parkside_ES.
Please complete the quick 10 minute survey of Employee Engagement by March 4th. This was sent in an email from the Institute for Organizational Excellence on Tuesday, Feb. 5th to all LISD employees.
Have a wonderful weekend!
