• A 5K teacher praised a student on her skill in retelling a story.  You could see her pride, even with the mask, as she shared her strengths with this skill.

• Teachers that worked so hard on report cards and comments for this first semester.  So many well-thought out questions, attention to detail, and strong feedback for students and families.  Your hard work was definitely noticed!

• A team of people came together to plan for a student that is really struggling right now.  Working with a strong team of compassionate adults makes me proud to be a Dodgeland staff member!

• There were many students that were happy to be back at school this week.  I checked in with many of them who were telling me how glad they are to be back at school.  I know it is because you all worked extra hard to have make a welcoming environment.

• Valentine's Day
• Valentine's Day is coming up.  If you are planning on students exchanging valentines this year, please plan ahead.  Since they will be coming from lots of different places, we want them to be COVID friendly when we give them to students.  This means that they should not include any baked items along with them and should be brought in to school in advance so that they can sit without being touched before handing them out to others.  All students should wash hands before handing out the valentines on 2/14.  If you have any questions, please let me know.

• Recess Update for cold weather Days
• Now that it is January, it is typical for us to end up with indoor recess because of cold weather.  The standard for indoor recess is a temperature less than 0 degrees or a windchill of less than 0.  In order to be systematic about communicating any changes to recess, we are going to follow this plan.  
• Recess decisions will be made by 9:15 for 4K/5K recess and by 11:45am for the afternoon recesses (grades 1-5).  Staff will be notified through email or Marie on the intercom.  
• Chris V/Stephanie S/Jenny will check temp for the 4K/5K recess and communicate with Marie.  
• Alicia Hahn will check temp for the grades 1-5 recesses and communicate with Marie.
• Click Here to see the coverage for indoor recess. Indoor recess takes place within your classrooms and a staff member will come to supervise them. (The chart is on the supervision tab on the schedules spreadsheet.)
• Indoor recess could be brain break activities, Go Noodle movement breaks, board games, indoor playworks games, etc.

• Communication to Families from Lynnae
• On Thursday, 1/21, Nurse Lynnae Shaw sent a digital letter and visual to parents through school messenger.  To read this important note about when to keep students home, click here.

• Blended Learning Expectations
• As a reminder, the second semester comes with some revised expectations and procedures designed to help our students be successful and develop strong studying habits.  Click here to read the handout again.  One of the important parts of this document is the expectations related to work completion (in addition to the attendance pieces).  In order for us to be consistent, please let me know about any students that are failing to meet these expectations.

This week when Sue sent out the link to the article about the Mathematic Practices, I thought, "Man, I wish I had read this years before now."  It was so much easier to imagine how students use these math practices and ways I could have been putting them into practice.  The other thing that the article reminded me was of our conversation last week during our Bridges math discussion.  We agreed that we wanted to have students participating more in discussions related to math.  If you were like me, you may have wondered ways to do this, especially as one of the practices is related to making sound arguments and critiquing others' reasoning.  I found the this resource to be especially helpful if I were to be working on ways to add more student talk in math.  What do you think?

Dr. Thompson shared this with me.  I know there has got to be more than just me that would love their own rest time during the day, right?  Let's hope this thought runs through a few 4 year olds minds today!  :-)

• Thank you for your collegiality and reflective conversations last Friday.  I hope you found the day to be productive as well.

• Many of our classrooms are preparing for students to return next week.  Whether it is a blended or virtual student, there is a lot of work to prepare to welcome students back.  Thank you for all your hard work!

• Thoughtful questions about the grading system that fits with our professional learning.  The proficiency grading for academics is about the evidence you have regarding how proficient they are towards the standard.  Missing work, lack of participation online, etc, will all be reported in the citizenship skills.

• I listened to a 2nd grader give a detailed explanation of how coins relate to each other.  His explanation showed he truly understands how to count money and that there is more than one way to get to the same amount!

• A 5K student was "teaching" his classmates math.  He asked his classmates, "What do you see about this problem?  See how it is like the other one."  (3+2=5 and 2+3=5). I believe he is paying close attention to his teacher's lessons and her words!

• A group of 2nd graders helped me by explaining their routine for their classroom.  I was successful because they know exactly what to do.  Even after a long winter break, they were a joy to hang out with too!

• A third grader waited to make sure the door didn't close on a student/teacher that were coming up behind him.  I love watching our students treating others with kindness.  They model what they see around them!

If you were like me, you disconnected for some or most of the winter break.  It felt great to me.  However, this week I started to stress about my to do list.  I came across this very old PinkCast.  I like how he can get right to the point, but also give me something practical to do and reflect on.  Click here to watch the 2 min. video.  I am going to try to make this my habit.  (BTW, did you see that Daniel Pink has a marker board in his office too? I bet he doesn't have cool drawings of dinosaurs, rainbows and stick people on his though!). :-)

• A 3rd grader came up to be at bus duty to share that he already had 200 correct questions for the tournament!
• Teachers using every minute of their day for learning.  Time is our most precious resource every year, but especially this year.  Thank you for teaching with a sense of urgency!

• As we discussed in this week's staff meeting, it is important that each classroom walk their class through the lockdown procedures so that students and staff know what to do.  However, please keep our covid procedures in mind so that we are safe for that as well.  Below are some resources that Brad Modaff, our safety coordinator, shared with me to help.
• 2018 Lockdown Presentation - https://youtu.be/vDQgGLU9_2s
• 18-19 Staff Inservice Safety Training - https://drive.google.com/file/d/1dvUGYAdZmXPilzpav3ZvIle16ZnGo7GJ/view?usp=sharing
• Please complete this drill in your homeroom classroom before winter break.  When you finish the drill, please complete this google form so that we have documentation that this drill was completed this month.
• For more information on the important procedures see these resources below:
• Active Shooter/Active Killer
• Lockdown
• Evacuation

Prodigy Tournament

Today I participated in a webinar regarding pieces of the prodigy program.  Lisa (our rep) recorded the session and when I get the link I will send it out to you.  This would work for a webinar towards alt. comp too.  There are so many pieces of Prodigy to make this program tailored directly to your students' math needs.  If you have not used it yet, please consider introducing it to your students.  In addition, the tournament will continue to go on for another couple of weeks.  If we can get our kids excited about it, they will want to keep practicing even during winter break! I will have another short video for students on Monday about our prodigy tournament.  Lisa is announcing something surprising tomorrow.  I can't wait to find out what it is!

•  The Triple P 
• This year we are in partnership with the Greater Watertown Health Foundation to bring the Triple P to our Dodgeland Families. Triple P stands for Positive Parenting Program.  At all times, parents need advice or help.  When my kids were very young, I called my mom constantly.  Later, I would ask questions of the friends I had with children a little older than my own.  When they got even older, I asked other parents of teens and so on.  This is totally normal.  Triple P was created to bring normalcy to parenting education and provide practical tips, advice and help for parents.  Later this spring, we will be sponsoring virtual parenting seminars.  In the meantime though, there is a referral process I can use for families that would like to work 1:1 with a parenting coach.  Please check out the seminars, discussion groups, and classes that are available for your own information or to share with families as a resource.  If you have any questions, please let me know!

• This week I was able to participate in a training that relates to our ongoing partnership with the Greater Watertown Health Foundation and the TalkReadPlay initiative.  While we can not hold our regular play groups, we are still preparing for them for next year.  The training that I was a part of used brain development and interactions with caregivers and stress in order to provide ways for "coaches" to lead play groups of parents/children from birth through age 5.  Click here to watch a 4 min. video that I found fascinating.  While we are not working with infants at Dodgeland, we do have the advantage of working with our young students and our emphasis on social-emotional learning is paramount for our students' future.  Thank you to everyone for all that you do to support our students and their emotional health at school.

• Dodgeland Elementary will be sponsoring a Prodigy tournament in conjunction with our partnership with Prodigy.  Click here for a letter from Prodigy.  There will be a letter for parents that I will share on Dojo next week for parents as well.  In addition to the prizes from Prodigy, all students that answer more than 200 correct questions during the tournament will be entered in a drawing for prizes from me.  Watch for a video next week to share with students.  (The time spent on it does not have to be done at school, but it can be.  The more correct answers, the more math practice students get.)

• IMC/Library
• The referendum planning is going strong and is getting closer and closer to getting started.  One of the areas that will be renovated in the first round is the IMC.  This means that the IMC needs to be packed up well before the spring.  In order for this to be done, Christina will need to suspend library lessons after winter break.  Please watch for an email from her regarding how she is supporting your students and instruction during this time period.  If you have any questions or concerns, please let me know.

• Extra Clothes
• The nurse's office is running low on extra clothes for students.  If you have any extra long pants/shorts or short/long sleeved shirts in youth sizes 4T-10/12, that you would like to donate (or know someone who does), they would be very appreciative.  In addition, if students had an extra set of clothing in their locker, that would help as well.  Please share with parents so that they can send some in.

I have had the privilege of spending a lot of time with 4 year olds in the last year or so (including my own nephew Johnny--Just had to share a cute pic!).  When I watched one of the latest Pinkcast videos in which he talked about how often an average 4 year old laughs, it has made me more aware of the cute giggles and infectious laughs that I hear each day.  This Pinkcast video makes me really think about how I can make sure I take some of this glee and make sure to add it to my own day as well.  I just love how Daniel Pink has brought attention to this through highlighting the book, Humor, Seriously by Jennifer Aaker and Naomi Bagdonas.  It may be just what we all need too.  I believe I am going to complete a personal humor audit.  Who's with me?
