We start the staff meeting on Wednesday with TFEA visiting for a few minutes. Then we start a fun gallery walk through classrooms. I think it's going to be a really fun afternoon. It's a field trip for teachers. We'll start with preschool in Mrs. Popa's classroom, visit Mrs. Rose's classroom, and then visit every classroom first grade through fifth grade. We will also visit Ms. Bradley's classroom, Mrs. Kenyon's two classrooms, STEAM, PE, Music, and Mrs. Turpin's classroom. It's important to see the rooms that your students attend every day. You can ask questions and get ideas for your own classroom. If you are not a teacher, such as a para, you are definitely welcome to attend. We'll look at items such as:
1. objectives posted
2. number corner set up
3. We have been adding new desks and tables every year and almost every classroom has been updated. You'll get to see different classroom arrangements for student learning.
4. flexible seating in some classrooms
5. classroom management/behavior charts/posted visuals and reminders
6. leadership notebooks for student led conferences
Pictures this week include a picture from the annual Scratch for Schools that three of our staff members attended. Third grade also had a really fun event at the end of the day on Friday to recognize student growth with Istation, and the happy faces are awesome. We might just see red capes, but there were several girls who really wanted the princess capes and they are going to try really hard to earn them next month.
Here is a video clip from the third grade Istation celebration event:

Pictures also include service leaders, the after school program, bubbles and nice weather during recess, student lighthouse interviews, and our monthly Tie Tuesday. There is also an awesome picture of another classroom that had very generous donations so every student could receive a free book every month during the school year. Students were so excited to write their name on their very own book:
