Today was Megan's last day, so please welcome Karli Larson to our FamiLEE!
DID YOU KNOW:
- that the School Board is coming to all campuses to do learning walks? Our visit will be on February 6, so I am not approving any more personal days for this date. Please be working NOW on your displays of learner work!
- that there is a follow up for our PLC training on last Monday? Please reflect on one of these two forums (padlet or flipgrid) before leaving on Friday. If you choose flipgrid the code is: plcreflect
- that you have permission to wear sweats, on January 17, if you register and earn 1,000 points for creating an account on the Community Challenge website. There will be weekly motivators for sweats in the future. Stay tuned!
FOSS KITS
We should not see Physical Science Kits out in spaces. Please make sure you are using the latest resource kits for Earth Science. These kits can be found in the gym storage closet and an administrator can help you get access to them.
SIX FLAGS READ TO SUCCEED
Melinda sent you all an email about reminding learners about this. Please mark your calendars and remind your learners and parents about this opportunity.
RED OUT
Don't forget to order American Heart Association Shirts for a $20 donation by Friday. Your shirt will be delivered to you at school and you can wear jeans and your shirt every Thursday the month of February.
YEARBOOKS
Please remind your parents that yearbooks are still on sale. The price is $25 until Feb 15 and $30 from February 16 - March 25.
LEE HEALTH UPDATE (please add to your newsletters)
A very high number of Influenza (Flu) cases have been reported in our area. Dallas County has reported over 20 deaths related to the influenza virus this year.
If your child has any Flu Like Symptoms please keep them home. A child that is sick cannot learn effectively and is unable to participate in a meaningful way. Keeping a sick child home prevents the spread of illness in the school community and allows the child opportunity to rest and recover.
Students with a temperature 100º F or greater should stay home until fever-free for 24 hours without the aid of a fever suppressing medication (e.g. Tylenol, Motrin, Acetaminophen, ibuprofen)
*It’s important to note that not everyone with flu will have a fever, so please keep your child home if they don’t feel well.
Please notify us of any flu like symptoms as well as any diagnosis of anything contagious. We want to keep ALL LEE LEARNERS HEALTHY!
GREAT KINDNESS CHALLENGE
Please start working on your class Kindness banner that will be used for our Kindness Kickoff.
WEEKLY WALKTHROUGH FOCUS
It is time for our walkthroughs to start back up now that most of our formal observations are completed. For our focused walkthroughs the next four weeks we will be focusing on Domain 2 Dimension 2 Content Knowledge and Expertise. We will be looking for things like cross curricular connections, strategies to avoid learning pitfalls, learners analyzing, creating and evaluating, and learner-directed learning.
ESL STRATEGY OF THE WEEK:
Make sure ELLs have sufficient exposure to the content and academic language to participate in an oral language activity.
LEE LIFE PRINCIPLE:
Commitment- keeping a promise or a pledge
LESSON IN LEADERSHIP:
Be committed to your family, friends, and your values. Follow through with your responsibilities at school and at home.
LEE QUOTE OF THE WEEK:
