Weekly Newsletter 
The Week of September 29th


Fall Conferences
We are looking forward to meeting with families in the upcoming weeks! We want to discuss student goals, progress, and test scores with you. Please use the following link to find a time and schedule your Fall conference. Thank you!

Transparent Classroom
You may have noticed that Transparent Classroom is being used in a new way this year. We are using the record keeping tool to make quick observations during the day.The practice of observing students and taking notes helps us to record and reflect on what we're seeing, and then make changes based on the data collected. We are observing for just a few minutes during different times of the day, in order to get an accurate account of what's happening in the environment. 

Also, we have given the children due dates for cultural shelf work and projects, which are recorded on Transparent Classroom. Sometimes students are given cultural lessons and do not follow up on the work. We are hoping that by giving the children due dates and posting them in Transparent Classroom, that students will remember to work on cultural items and that it might encourage a family conversation about the work that is being completed in the classroom.    

New Learning Log
The image below is a copy of our new learning log. Students will be setting goals and filling in the work they intend to complete for the week on Monday mornings. The children will check off work after they have completed it. These learning logs are two sided, so they will be sent home to parents after two weeks. Please have conversations with your children about their goals and the progress they're making towards meeting them.
