They were working so intensely. I felt bad interrupting them but then I got these sweet smiles. :)
Nuts-n-Bolts
1. Thanks for participating in the Gift exchange, sharing snacks, and laughter. I think next year we will jump right to the indoor snowball fight! :D
2. We will run the yellow schedule tomorrow. This means we will call you down by grade for the assembly, dismiss by the grade and end in our 7th period class for end of day dismissal.
3. PLEASE SIGN PAYROLL BEFORE YOU LEAVE TOMORROW
4. When students are tardy, please do not send them to the SSR room. We are tracking tardies through the office.
5. When thinking about classroom supplies, please use your $125.00 from your classroom budget first. If you have depleted your funds, please come see me and let's talk about what you need.
6. Please shut down your computer, turn off monitors and unplug any coffee makers, Keurig machines, (which we shouldn't have these items -coffee makers and Keurig machines in our classrooms but that is for another TT ), etc. Also, please take your items out of the frig in the staff lounge.

9. THANK YOU for your participation in today's PD with Sarah Schuhl. I know not all of you were able to participate; wish that could have been different. For those that did, good conversations around student learning but more about what we, as adults, are doing to facilitate this learning. This means getting real with the data, being honest with colleagues and stepping back to see the big picture which is not always easy. Change in how we do business can be difficult. Keep asking questions and keep thinking with an open mind.
Both Sarah and Christy commented on the depth of questions around 'the work' and how impressed they were at the collaboration. GREAT JOB!!!!
I do like Christmas. :D
I hope you all enjoy your break, create memories and have as much joy in your laughter as Buddy does when he thinks of Santa coming! :)
Take care! Happy Holidays!
