Mr. Siler:  I am sad to announce that Mr. Siler's last day at Bullock will be February 17th.  We will gather for his send off on Thursday, February 16th at 3:30pm (after his bus returns).  Mr. Siler will be sincerely missed.  Mr. Siler's kind heart,  hard work and heart for kids will be greatly missed. 

Student led conferences:  Student led conferences will be held on February 16th from 5:30-7:00pm. Please see the Lighthouse Team reps with questions about the evening.

Behavior management:  The following resources were shared with me this week in regards to classroom management .  There are some good tips and resources. 

http://iris.peabody.vanderbilt.edu/iris-resource-locator/.  See the “Resources Locator” for information and training on how to support behavior and classroom management.   

PLCs: February's focus in PLCs is student engagement.  Please discuss how to know if your students are "tuned-in" and engaged  instruction.  Share strategies. 
  • Reflective questions:  Who is doing most of the talking?  Who is doing most of the thinking?  Is the engagement grade level appropriate?  Is guided reading comprehension instruction connected to whole class comprehension instruction? If math, is error analysis part of instruction?  Are there multiple opportunities for summarizing  with talking and writing? 

Please remember to review the item analysis from the quarterlies or common grade level exams to determine areas to reteach and/or review as a team.
