Ideas+to+discuss

Party packet and party days.

We have many sign up sheets during the school year. Could we discussion a central location for all sign-ups? One idea is to use the bulletin board in the main office copy room. 2/15/11

I had a thought about how to distribute this money. Could we divide the $1,000 by the number of classrooms instead of the 50/50 split for EC and kindergarten? It seems that EC is receiving more per classroom than kindergarten.

Could we use this money for staff development (i.e. Bringing in someone for Smartboard training)?


 * How about DVD books read by an author. We will not have Dave next year and maybe we could play a DVD on the Smartboard in the library with someone reading a book or an animated book.**

tumbleboks.com is a great sight with books that are animated-we'd have to get a subscription-You can get a free trial-We should check it out-My kids use it at their school-I can get their log-in and we can check it out that way too. -Erin


 * Pat Curtis is going to teach the PBIS cheer in gym class. This is such a great idea to help classroom teachers. How about looking at the YLP to help integrate our curriculum in all special areas. For example, music can teach a shape, pattern, or number song at the beginning of the year. Library can read non-fiction books about insects. These are a couple of ideas**.
