Kudos and To Do's
Kudos to all staff that joined PTA last week--we got 53 new members! Kudos to 8th grade for getting the most members and winning the Pizza lunch! Also, thanks to the 8th grade staff for working as a team to refocus our 8th grade students last week. I really appreciate everyone's new hall monitoriing assignments--your presence makes all the difference. Be sure to begin scheduling parent conferences for conference night. 1. Hands-on math with Harris, 2. Individual writing conferences with Webb, 3. Science lab with Neeley, 4. English research with Ms. Rogers, 5. SMART Board Do Now with Wynn
As the kids say, "What had happened was..." According to Marzano, Summarizing, Note-Taking and Comparing and Contrasting are three instructional strategies that best assist with student achievment. This week plan on spending some time focusing on SUMMARIZING. Here are a couple of great sites that have some creative new strategies ( Summary Ball) and some oldies but goodies (Exit tickets, 3-2-1 and think-pair-share). They are certainly worth reviewing.
