Happy Mother's Day! Enjoy your time with your families!
R.E.A.L. Panthers
RESPECT, EXPLORE, ACHIEVE, LEAD
THE TRUTH ABOUT YOU
I know these are lengthy but so powerful! Please take time to watch and enjoy :)
Only 2 out of 10 people get to play to their STRENGTH!
LET ME KNOW WHICH COUPON YOU WOULD LIKE?? :)
Message from the Boss...
Teachers-
Count Down...
9 days until the Last Day of School
We will have the LAST R.E.A.L. Panther Assembly on Thursday, May 18th. I want MSS to participate in Line 89 on Friday, May 19th. So be sure to communicate with students about expectations on attending Line 89. We will have a room available for those students who can not attend Line 89 if behavior is not appropriate.
TEAM PLC's next week!
5th grades will meet Monday for PLC's
6th grade will meet Tuesday for PLC's
Up-coming events to think about:
PTO Appreciation- Week of May 15th
Love you,
Casey Hanna
YEARBOOK DISTRABUTION
BEHAVIOR INCENTIVE "CAUGHT YOU BEING GOOD"
Beginning April 24th through May 19th, the students will have an opportunity to put their name in the bucket, jar, hat to win one of the prizes you list for your team.
This will be done as a TEAM, not as a whole building. So think of a creative way for students to put their "Caught you being good" tickets to use.
We are in the process of ordering the items and will be in soon. I have also received free passes to the Water Park and hopefully getting some free passes to Joyland Skating!
SCHOOL'S NOT OVER!
This is the time of the year that you need to really start thinking outside the box. Find creative, fun, exciting lessons that teach the standards but allows the students opportunity to EXPLORE new and creative ways.
If you need help on thinking outside the box or want to run an idea by me please let me know. I am here to help!
We have so many areas around our campus that are perfect for lessons...just to name a few:
The walking track
Outside classroom- pavilion
The back pavilion
5th grade gym
KIVA
This is not the time to show movies. Movies must be approved before showing. You can use movie clips to teach a lesson, no more than 20 minutes.
We will be looking at assessment binders soon. Get those ready! Think about how you are assessing the students. Does it have to be paper/pencil? Do you have plenty of assignments? Do you have a fair number of points for each assignment? Is it just busy work? (may not be a good time of year for busy work)

Be sure to talk to Mrs. Dalton in the cafeteria about how you will be handling lunches for field trips.
Be sure that you have back ground checks completed on parents that you would like to use as chaperones. We have to have the background check back before we can let them know they have been selected as a chaperone. Volunteers do not have to have a background check, so they CAN NOT ride the bus or be in charge of students. Volunteers can follow the bus or meet you there.
Any questions on field trips please let me know.
