MMM 10/12/2015

HeyAll,
Thanks for a great two days of Parent/Teacher conferences.  People that talked to me had nothing but good things to say to all of you.  Thanks for maintaining positive relationships with your students' parents.
I am so excited for this coming Monday.  I am looking forward to Edcamp.  I know I've only planned for 1 1/2 hours, but I think it will be great.  I have attached a link to the schedule for the day.

To Be Aware Of

Get Ready for Edcamp Grovecrest!

• We will be starting evaluations in the next few weeks.  I will be sending out an email to everyone letting you know what level you are on and what is required of you.  Also, those who created SLOs, we need to schedule a sit down with those as well.  I will send out an email with that schedule as well.
• I need two teachers who are willing to upload a video of you teaching to Edivate.  It is part of the STEM Action Grant that allows us to have it for free.  Please let me know that you are willing and then we can set up a phone or ipad camera in the back of the room to record and then upload.
• Keep track of what duty you have each week.  There have been a few times where there hasn't been someone out on duty.  We need to make sure the kids are safe.  Here is a link to the duty list for quick reference
• The Grovecrest Faculty Passion Project google classroom page is open and you all have been invited.  Here is a link to the page.  I've only had a few share on this page.  Take a look.  It is easy and I would like to know what everyone is thinking about.  Something I learned.  I know many of you have gotten on and done the first assignment.  On my end, it shows you haven't done it.  You need to get on and say you have turned it in.  Learning something all the time.
• Another video to watch of an edcamp.  Edcamp only works if everyone comes with ideas and is willing to share and learn from each other.  Edcamp is catered to your needs because you all will be the ones scheduling it.

I will let you know the evaluation schedule when I get it.
