REPORT CARDS
A friendly reminder to make sure that comments are positive and personalized on your report cards. Don't write a paragraph, but a couple/few sentences should be sufficient. A great idea Jacque had was to go in and write a couple of comments each day, instead of all at once, so it isn't so overwhelming. Report cards will be uploaded at 8:00 on TUESDAY, so please mark this deadline on your calendars. If you have any learners with >5 tardies or >5 absences it is a best practice to touch base with the parent and Leigh Ann to express your concern.
WRITE A CHECK
Write a Check starts next week. Please send home acknowledgement forms before the long weekend. Collect these and turn them in to the office daily. Our PTO will be calculating how many forms come in. There will be class awards for those with the greatest participation. The class that collects the most funds will also get a gift card from PTO. It is imperative that you talk up this three week event- we are trying to raise funds for all the items listed below, plus: house buses for field trips, teacher grants, and more!

DYSLEXIA AWARENESS MONTH
Dys means “not” or “difficult” and Lexia means “words” or “reading”
Dyslexia affects up to 1 in 5 people, but the experience of dyslexia isn't always the same. This difficulty in processing language exists along a spectrum. Please watch this short clip to learn more about dyslexic brain function. Learn how the brain works for learners with dyslexia and what parts of the brain functions while reading. Email Melissa something you found interesting in the video for a chance to win a sonic drink of your choice!

ESL FOR THE WEEK
BOOK CHARACTER PARADE and SCHOOL DANCE
October 31st is our Book Character Parade and November 1 is our School Dance, so please mark your calendars now, so you can participate. Please start talking up the Book Character Parade to your learners, NOW, so they have time to think about and prepare their costume for the 31st. Wouldn't it be awesome if ALL kids participated?
CISD FOCUSED WALKTHROUGH
All staff should have received at least one walkthrough in Domain 3.1: Environment. Starting this week, we will give feedback on Domain 3 Dimension 2: Student Behavior. We will be looking for evidence of praise and positivity as management strategies. We will listen for encouragement of learners and how you monitor and respond to learners while teaching and learning. Learners should manage themselves with minimal teacher redirection. We should see evidence in your space of class respect agreements and view high expectations for ALL. 
Just a reminder if you haven't added the course yet: Claudia and Stormy are hosting a professional development novel study over Sheltered Instruction in Texas. You have the opportunity to earn 6 SBEC hours for completing the book study with us! We will complete the book study together during Team Times and other designated professional development times by completing various activities in Schoology. Not to worry, we will complete ALL of the chapters together. If you have any questions OR are in need of a book, please let us know! You can sign up for the course ahead of time!
