DID YOU KNOW:
- Raz Kids should be live on August 30? Other rosters for digital apps are being loaded for you by the district. I was told they will communicate when they are done.
- we have been approved to have Katerina Zhelnova fill in for Stormy Allen until Brody decides to make a debut and she becomes our designer in Yellow 3. With the new ESL testing, it takes over 2 hours per child. Thank you Katerina!
- Feel free to use the Lucy Calkins anchor chart post-its in your kits. We suggest laminating them so you can use them over and over again each year. We will not be able to reorder sets for next year, so please consider laminating them, as you use them (great option for a parent volunteer- you could even send home to one), so our learners see common language and images across grades.
BIRTHDAY TREATS
I strongly suggest that when a birthday treat is sent home with learners that you send a quick email to inform your parents. Want to make it easy? Cut and paste this response to cover yourself in case a learner decides to eat their treat before going home. This email serves as notification that your learner helped celebrate a classmate's birthday at school, today. Your child placed the snack in their backpack during afternoon dismissal. ENJOY!
BOY GOAL SETTING MEETINGS
Please sign up here for your BOY meeting- they start on TUESDAY. We are excited to review your goals for the year and how we can support you. Normally, we will include Jacque in these meetings so she can support you as our IC, but as you know she is out. Please make sure your personal and campus goals are uploaded, and that you have multiple action steps along the way, before our meeting. Bring your laptop to the large conference room for your meeting. All campus employees must sign up.
PTO MEETING
On Tuesday, we have our first PTO Meeting. Don't forget to bring a house learner to share out what your house has been working on the start of this school year. The meeting starts at 6:30 in the cafeteria.
COLLEGE SHIRT DAY
College Shirt Day is the first Wednesday of every month. Please promote this information to your learners and their famiLEEs through your newsletters. We want to represent as many different colleges as possible on Wednesday. Don't forget to tweet out pictures of learners to the colleges they represent.

WALKTHROUGH FOCUS
Our focused walkthroughs for the next four weeks are in Domain 3 Dimension 1: Learning Environment. We are looking for evidence of effective routines, transitions, and procedures that are implemented effortlessly. We are looking for learners to be in charge of managing materials and that your room is safe, inviting, and orderly. Think about your anchor charts? Is there intention with where they are located? Is learner work displayed in your space? Are your learning targets, respect agreement, and digital pledge posted?
