Wow! We had an awesome first week! We worked a lot on procedures and routines. They did great!

I will send out a blog post every Friday. This is so I can recap the weeks events and communicate the next week's plans and events. I will try and email you that I updated the blog but please be checking regularly on your own as well.

"Homework" this weekend will be memorizing their lunch numbers. This is good for them to know even if they bring their lunch everyday. I will discuss our typical homework schedule and routines at the Curriculum night.

Curriculum Night is August 20th from 5:30- 6:30 pm. You will start in the gym for a few announcements and then come to the room. I BEG that you be there! I will be talking about homework, different ways of communication, student work, and how to navigate educational jargon. All of these are important.

Next week!

Moral focus/ Leader in Me!: We will be talking about responsibility and habit 1 which is being proactive, not reactive. These go hand in hand! We want our students to take of their things but also take care of themselves.
