Nitty-Gritty
- Reminder: If you haven't filled out the Google Form for Mindy to create the Meet the Staff bulletin board, please do so before August 26. The link to the 4 questions is here.
- Our Trojan Rodeo for 5K-5th grades will be similar to last year's schedule with the exception of 5K, which will spread out their stations between the first couple days. In addition, students will be learning and practicing Play-works games for a longer time period to alleviate some of the rushed feelings from last year.
- Schedules, Duties, Committees and more - Click here for a short video to explain this year's plans. These documents are found in the Shared drive.
- On Thursday, August 29 our new Playworks coach (Jena) will be conducting a training about Playworks in the classroom during our Elementary staff meeting time. The goal is to help kids to transition successfully from one activity to another.
- Finally, just a quick personal note. I am moving Mason to college on Wednesday morning. His assigned time is 9:30. I will return to school after I have him settled, hopefully by 1:30-2pm. Just ignore any red-rimmed eyes that afternoon!
PD Spotlight
At the Dodgeland Summit, I shared a short video with those that attended my Learning Environment session. I wanted to share it with all of you. The takeaways are that: 1. Our mood is contagious. 2. Charisma is communicated nonverbally. Why do I share this? It is a reminder to all of us that even without our words, we have a tremendous effect on our students.
