Reminders

MAPs Testing Information
This week we will be starting MAPs Testing in your homeroom classes. This year we're planning to use the Chromebooks to get testing completed and you will need to share devices between classes. We will also be borrowing Chromebooks from other grade levels to complete testing too. It will be important to label each one of your devices (NOT just your tub) for us to do testing.

The MAP Testing Procedures from the school district - which includes great information for you to review before giving the test:
  • Creating Test Sessions
  • What to Do Prior to a Test Session
  • What to Do During a Test Session
  • MAP Reports
  • Accessibility Features (for Instructional Supports & Accommodations)
The Testing Schedule for our campus. In Grades 2-4 we will be testing Math, Reading, and Science. 1st Grade will be testing Math & Reading. Kindergarten will be testing Math & Reading with iPads Only. We have a Subject Testing Window so each test must be given within that window (see the schedule).

Procedures & Routines 
Please continue to teach/train your student the expectations for your ALL common areas and your classroom (Hallways, Lunchroom, Recess). Be sure you're actively monitoring students at recess times. And remember that PAWS Tickets are for students that are doing all the procedures and expectations in our common areas. 


Capturing Kids Hearts Update
I notice 100% of staff members greeting students as they entered the classroom during this last week... excellent work! Remember to post your "Do Now" in your classroom as students walk into the classroom.

New Information

Fire Drill this Week
Just remember, do NOT leave you room until you hear the message from Powley that says, "This is a fire drill, please follow your drill procedures." Also, make sure to take your radios out so you can clear your teams via the radio. 

Education Galaxy
If you're new to Education Galaxy or you're ready to dive deeper into all it has to offer, then you'll want to attend a WOW Wednesday training on September 26th from 3:30 - 5:00 in the Training Room at the administration building. Be sure to bring your laptop!

The trainer will cover the basic Education Galaxy program, which is great for Tier 1 instruction for Math and Reading/Writing (and Science and Social Studies for some grades.) You'll also be able to learn about Lift-Off, a supplemental part of the program that can be used for Tier 2 and 3 intervention for students.
