Clubs Next Week
DST Tidbits (Discipline, Safety, Technology)
Discipline
As discipline issues arise in your classroom, be sure to properly document and as necessary communicate the incidents to both administrators. Email communication is fine but only use student initials. Be sure to effectively communicate with parents, also. If a student is identified as IDEA, communication should also be maintained with the responsible collaborative teacher (TOR). According to the specified behavior, it might be necessary to put a behavior plan in place or be sure the current plan is being implemented.
Technology
Just a little something to keep us thinking about feedback and formative assessment
Have a great week!!
