Week 28
Crafting Our Future Together
Week 28
Please Note:
All students who are to be marked tardy are tracked in the office on a tardy log and will come to class with a tardy slip. If a student does not have a tardy slip than they are NOT to be marked tardy unless you verify with the office.Auditors verify all students marked tardy in Aeries against the office tardy log and we must have an exact match. We appreciate your attention to this very important detail.

Staffing and Construction Update:
*Staffing and moves have been released to the entire staff. I appreciate your professionalism and willingness to work as a team. There are going to be so many moves this summer, Carlos will be limited in the extra work he can do, please be gentle with him and his schedule.
*Students will get unfocused as soon as they feel summer is on the horizon, please make sure you are not taking down walls or packing too early. It is important that we stay focused and don't leave before we leave. Please do not start packing or taking items down until after May 3rd.
*Rooms 3,4, and 5 have to be completely empty for construction.
*Rooms 1,2,6,7 and 8. You can leave items stored as long as you don't need to get to them before Winter Break.
Please see Lori for boxes and tape when it gets to be that time.
SLT - Common Commitments: (UPDATED)
As a staff we will commit to Intentional Collaborative Conversations.
“Intentional” means- grouping students together for an intentional purpose: giving certain partners or groups specific types of questions, and/or giving roles/jobs to particular students for a purpose in mind. (Such as a Reader, Writer, Illustrator, Reporter, etc… without giving a lower reader the Reader position, or shy person the reporter position.)
Within the Collaborative Conversations include using the 4Ls as norms, using sentence frames, complete sentences, and RACE as appropriate.
At the SLT we are keeping these common commitments, increasing student opprotuinites to focus on Speaking and Listening, and we learned about several new resources:
Additionally, there is a comprehension intervention that goes with Wonders.
Gallup Survey Results - bit.ly/Gallup18-19
