Celebration of Learning Details
Where: Homestead Coffee Shop (Jefferson)
Time: 2:00pm (Back Room)
Purpose & Goal: To gather, reflect, and share about our learning and growth related to Project Based Learning and Performance Tasks this year.
Each team will share out their learning. This can look a variety of ways. Be creative! I have included a few possible reflective statements to help with the brainstorming process...
- I used to think...and now I think
- What went Well, What didn't go well, what did you learn as a team, as individuals.
- Share your process (use the stairstep picture to reflect on your journey)
- Share student work, examples of assessment, explanation of your performance task, etc.

Dates til the End of the Year to Make Note Of....
Below is a link to dates for the remander of the year. Please feel free to add to this doc if there are other dates that we might have forgotten. I plan to keep this linked up in the newsletter each week! (example: if you are playing kickball at the softball field one afternoon, add that date to the doc.) Let me know if you have any questions! Can you believe it we have 42 more days! Wow, has the year flown!

Color Run Details:
- We will be having the color run here in Grand Junction.
- ALL students will still be able to participate in the run even if they don't fund raise.
- If you have large water containers for water stations we are needing them on that day!
- We are needing a few leaf blowers to blow off color. If you have one please let Heather know in the office and we will put you down.
