Teachers,

  • 4th Grade - Sept. 15
  • 3rd Grade - Sept. 16

You can also view the district staff development for the year using the PD Calendar for Scheduling Subs tab on this blog. 

This week's staff meeting focus has changed. Kelli Hedlund is going to give you a tutorial on using the Big Universe digital book library (new this year)so please bring a laptop or Chromebook to the meeting. Students can access this digital library from a device during independent reading time in Readers Workshop, teachers could utilize these resources for guided reading (if you have enough devices for students)and students can access these books away from school for at home reading. If you would like to learn more about Big Universe prior to the staff meeting, below is a youtube video overview.
