Monday, November 8

I went back to Blue Ridge and helped with a class who had come in to get a lesson on using guide words in the dictionary. 

After this class left, we worked on looking at Renaissance adding some of the programs for teachers.  While looking at the program, I noted some interesting data that I could use for my grant that would allow us to acquire some additional reading materials.  From here, we went into the circulation for the year.  Both of these revealed statistics that reinforce that BRE is an environment that encourages a love of reading.

After school I attending a Media meeting at the school level where the committee was considering creating a step-by-step policy whereby teachers would know exactly how they choose videos for classroom use.

This policy is being created due to a parent questioning the use of viedo is her student's classroom.  The students had watched Witches after Roald Dahl's novel.  The video is rated PG and the teacher has not sent out letters asking for parent permission.

This committee will meet with the parent next week to discuss the current policy and their plans to update their current policy.

I also touched based with my 3rd grade book review teacher.  The arts students plan to have their illustrations complete by the 12th of November and will bring a close to my work with that class.
2.5 hours
