We are off to an amazing start to the 2015-2016 school year. Our first two days with kids was very smooth! I appreciate all of the extra help in hallways, cafeteria, and end of the day procedures. Keep up the GREAT work!

If you know how to log in to TalentEd and what to go ahead and take care of this that's great. We will meet to go over these the week of August 24th. I will set up appoints to sign up in Google calendar next week.
Student Learning Objectives (SLO's): DESE requires us to show student growth but they allow each of you to choose how to record this! You will see this in your TalentEd account. The good news is you get to choose how that will look for your students. The other news is that I am not sure how this works specifically so I am going to workshop to figure it out.:) I will be sharing this with on Monday, September 14th. Due Friday, August 21st-Don't forget to turn in your SUB FOLDER, CLASS SCHEDULE and RECESS SCHEDULE by Friday. Last night while I was getting ready for bed, Jada looked at me and said, "Mom, I'm a little nervous about starting school tomorrow." I told her not to worry and that I was a little nervous too!! She just giggled! I am sure you are just like me this time of year....double checking everything, making those last minute copies, sleepless nights, and so on! Just know that you are going to be truly AMAZING today! You have the best job in the world and in a few minutes you will have an audience of eager little learners ready to start the day. MAKE IT A AMAZING DAY!!!
A few reminders for the first several days...
I have seen LOTS of teachers working over the past few weeks. Our building is starting to come together with some last minute touches remaining. Let me know if you need anything!
Staff Changes-We are REALLY sad to see Amanda Pearson leave this year. Unfortunately, she is not able to return. She is taking a leave to care for her family this year. We hope to see her back in the near future! Below you will find the names of new staff members this year...
Agenda-Here is the AGENDA for August 10th-12th. Teacher Kiddos-We have several teacher kiddos in our building. (ME included!) It is a great perk to have your own children in the building. However, PLEASE be considered of other co-workers and their work space. If your children are not enrolled in Tiger Tales, they need to be in your classroom before/after school. They should not be hanging out in the workroom, library, gym, playground, computer lab.... Math CAP/Curriculum/Assessments etc.-There will be a new Math website released this week. If you have made copies of anything or started planning, you are going to want to double check the website in a couple days. This also applies to writing and writing rubrics etc. You are going to want to wait until you hear from the curriculum dept. before finalizing plans. Just wanted to give you a heads up. Expectations-You will need to read this PACKET of information by Thursday, August 13th. This should help answer some of your questions regarding dress code, hours, lesson plan expectations, and more. |
