Re-teach suggestions:  Choose one skill that students need additional exposure to and teach a mini lesson during morning work.  Add the skill to one of the daily centers for students to practice.  Leverage videos from Person Realize and Kahn Academy; students can view a video explaining the skill and have the power of pause to view the video more often if needed within the center.  Students could also have homework to practice a skill in addition to their current homework.  At the end of the week re-assess the skill and have students track their growth and progress.  A third grade example is below, you may have to copy and paste the link into the address bar.

SRT Calls:  Decreased by 7 for the week, going from 46 two weeks ago to 39 last week.  Please maintain high expectations for learning and behavior and create opportunities for students to show their leadership.

Bus Referrals:  We had 7 bus referrals this week.  This data is now live under the Weekly SRT Data link.  There is a tab at the bottom "Bus Referrals".

Staff Attendance:  The goal is 95% for the March.

We will continue to narrow our list of skills and dispositions that all students will possess by the end of their fifth grade year.  I will send out the list we made in faculty meeting last week to gain additional input.  If you have additional input or ideas, please feel free to add to the document.

Please remember to check the living calendar and daily updates.  We have the science fair this week and trauma sensitive training -- Self Care

Grades for report cards should be entered into Infinite Campus by 3/21.  Printed report cards are due to me by the end of the day on 3/22.  Report cards go home 3/26, ECE progress reports should be mailed home,

I'm buying treats Friday for the teacher and class that can show me their self assessment sheets for tracking progress on a standard for this week.  Lunch for the teacher and a treat for the students.
