Field+Based+Activities+August

This month started off with lots of change. My site mentor from the spring left our district and I had to find a replacement very quickly. Fortunately, my assistant principal stepped up to the task. Since I was preparing to be back in the classroom, after a year out, I wanted to make sure that my team and I were prepared for a great start. I created a "Back to School" PowerPoint template for our Meet the Teacher event. I showed it to my mentor and she asked me to post it on Faculty Share so other teachers could use it for their own. Sadly, I wasn't able to show my own work because my projection system was not hooked up correctly and I did not learn that until after school started. I also created a jumpslide for our new Positive Behavior Intervention System, "STARS", that all of the teachers could use to present and review the information throughout the year. The jumpslide includes links to videos of example/non-example for each as well as questions to review after each mini-lesson. This too was stored in Faculty Share for the staff to access. See the links below for this month's report.
