* Your students will complete this during their regular technology special time.
* If you do not have tech the week of December 8
* You have been assigned a time and a location to complete this activity.
* Megan will lead your class in coding activities, but we will need you to assist.
• All initial certified evaluations must be completed by December 17th. If you haven't signed up for your observation cycle please do so Monday.
• In lieu of a December leadership meeting all teachers who serve on District committees will meet with Jenny & Libby. If you didn't schedule your meeting before break please see Janis.
• Mark your
calendars! Our staff holiday party will be on Thursday, December 18 at
Elizabeth Meuli’s house. More information to come!
• Please
remember to sign up for a day to give DRA/Running Records. If you have a prearranged sub, Kristi can enter it for you if
you send her the information. If you do not have a prearranged sub, you can
enter it under “planning time.”
• The
Assessment & System Performance Team is working to develop a monthly CITE 6
Newsletter with relevant and updated information. The focus for the first
newsletter is high-quality assessment practices (CITE 2) and entering
assessments into the Assessment Library in InspirED innovation. Resources,
including how to set the model and select measures in InspirED can be found on
the back page in the right-hand column. Future newsletters will focus on
specific information in CITE 6.
