I had such a relaxing break and I sincerely hope you all did as well. With that said, I am so glad to be back into a normal routine! It was definitely hard getting up this morning, but now that I'm here I am so excited for all of the things we will be doing the rest of this school year.
I wanted to update you on a few things for the rest of the year. We did a trial run of ClassDojo and I think we will continue using that to track behavior. It honestly helps me remember what the students did to lose points. You do not have to download the app. I know you already have Seesaw, and I will continue to use that app for communication. They will continue to fill out a stop and think sheet that will need to be signed and returned the next day. This is their responsibility to remember to get the signature. I will also start a tracking sheet in their leadership binders for positive Dojo points to earn rewards. While we are talking about behavior, I am really looking for support in this new year. The students seemed to get pretty relaxed with our expectations nearing Christmas break and so I have told them that I will start getting very strict about our expectations this year. I have explained to them that when everyone is following our expectations and I can trust that they will, that I can plan for more fun activities during our learning time. With 19 students, things can get pretty crazy sometimes, so thank you in advance for partnering with me on this. Important Dates to remember for January: Thursday, January 9- Hat Day with a Food Pantry Donation or 25 cents Friday, January 10- First Fridays for Families in the cafeteria at 7:15 Friday, January 10- 2nd quarter progress reports will be sent home Monday, January 20- NO SCHOOL for students Good News Club will meet the 16th, 23rd, and 30th this month. Thanks for reading! Mrs. Adams
