The Curriculum Corner: Teaching with FOCUS, Part 2
As you read this, reflect on our new ELA curriculum & the components that were introduced during last week's faculty meeting. Do you see these essentials throughout what we have designed? Did this "bite-sized best practice" help you to see our curriculum design through a new lens? If so what components stand out now? Feel free to share your reflections on these questions or any general thoughts via email or social media! Thank you for a fantastic week & have a great weekend!

News & Notes
To the 3rd Grade Team: I will be having lunch during your block this week. If you would like to "chat & chew" about anything, let me know!
Eureka Math: The key to engagement, assessment & maintaining our pacing is our use of dry erase boards! Hold-ups will allow you to instantly assess students while keeping the pace moving. Now that I think about it, the same holds true for FUNdations!
Fall PLC: Our first Who's Doing the Work PLC date is 10/24. We will be covering Chapters 1 & 2. This is a voluntary meeting. Let me know if you plan on attending or if you have any questions!
Student Rubrics: If you have student friendly ELA rubrics, please email me! I am looking to put together a database for us so everyone can score some 4's in Domain 4 this year!
