Cougar "Prints"
Week of March 21
Almost There!
The week before a big break like this can at times feel crazy and disjointed. The students know it is coming, and sometimes things appear to unravel.
What is the best remedy to temper such occurrences? Solid, well planned instruction that keeps the students engaged!
Spring Break is near, and I hope you all have exciting plans. I told one grade level and I feel obligated to do the same for everyone else. You do have a bit of homework to do over break and I really need you to accomplish this and hate to do this to you...Check out! Unplug! Relax! Take the short trip you've put off for whatever reason! Reconnect with an old friend or family. Or, just do nothing at all and at times, that is doing a lot for yourself and your family! Do whatever you need to do recharge your battery for the big push before the close of school!
