O3s and Observations


No O3s this week, but I will still be observing. So, don’t forget to schedule your observation.

Out of the Building

I’m not sure if many of you are aware, but I am South Arbor’s McKinney-Vento (homeless) liaison. I will be out of the building on Friday, March 20 in the morning until 10:30 because I have to attend training at the WISD. Please see your team lead or a member of the admin team if you need anything before I return.

Writing Street Schedule

To prepare for the upcoming assessment schedule (M-STEP and MAP) each grade level decided to adjust our normal Reading Street writing schedule for Unit 5. Students are only required to complete the Unit writing, this will allow implementation of Performance Tasks and other genres of writing. I will not be creating a formal writing schedule, so please see below.

3rd grade
·       Persuasive Essay Unit writing and PT

4th grade
·       Argument-Persuasive Essay Unit writing and PT

5th grade
  • Argument-Persuasive Essay Unit writing, PT, and a poetry unit 

Happy Birthday
