Math Manipulatives by module for Eureka Click Here -
Please invite me in for a math lesson when you are using math manipulatives.
SLT - Common Commitments:
As we move closer to a student centered classroom, remember it is important for students to problem solve and Productive Struggle is good. The person in the classroom learning is the person doing the work.....
As a first step, try to move closer to a 50% teacher talk/ 50% student talk model. (We need to increase intentional student talk/collaboration time)
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.
Class List for next year need to be turned into Amy by May 20th
* Library and READ 180 and all other interventions are now ended!!!
Maira will stay and continue to support K-2 as needed to administer DIBELS EOY
through May 17th. Please work directly with Maira as needed.
CAASAPP- Testing will begin Monday
* RSP times will be impacted
*Alma will pick up your RSP students that are testing with her
* Please train all students not to enter a classroom with a testing sign displayed
*All students not testing or late to school will be held in the library, please call when you are done to get your students.
*Please call the office if you have a few left testing and you feel they need to be given extra time while you move on. (you can monitor where they are in the assessment on your computer)
*NO TESTING 1:1 for any student, always have a third person present adult or child
END OF YEAR CORNER
For teachers not returning next year, please give Shelley your Danielson books so we can pass on to the new teachers.
Parent Request - Parents may put their request in writing and submit it to the front office. They may also just tell you their preference, you are making the classes. The goal is to slowly move away from classroom request.
Student files can be started now, remember you will need to do Ed Cards and Report Cards on the last day so plan accordingly.
End of year Check Out- There will not be any check out sign ups. On Thursday May 30th (the last day). As soon as assemblies are done I will come by all the rooms before the bell rings and check out your rooms. If you are not ready, I am here all day and I can come back. If you need additional time, I will also be here Friday May 31st. Please plan ahead so you are ready for SUMMER!!!
Student files do have to be done BY FRIDAY MAY 31st at the latest - Amy has to finish her side of the work before she leaves for break.
Please do electronic "Yard Sale" - Please do not bring items to the lounge - If no one wants your treasures, please discard or donate offsite. If there is an RUSD bar code talk to Shelley first.
Staffing and Construction Update:
For those who are moving- you need to put all items in boxes and write on there where items will be moved too. Mark all furniture that also needs to be moved. - You are NOT expected to move any items. Just pack and unpack.
*Rooms 3,4, and 5 have to be completely empty for construction.
*Rooms 1,2,6,7 and 8. We will most likely start the year in these classrooms and move into portables after a few weeks.
Please see Lori for boxes and tape when it gets to be that time.
