Things to Re Read and Keep in Mind
Incidents often happen when we least expect them, which is why we must remain always alert and ensure that students are always safe and supervised, especially during transitions, outdoor play, snack, and all other moments of the day.
Effective classroom management, proactive strategies, strong relationships with students, and assertive verbal and non-verbal communication all play a key role in preventing incidents.
Your duties start at the very beginning of outdoor play. It is each one of our responsibility to be on our spots on time.
If you are unable to be on your designated spot, please find a replacement beforehand.
What active supervision looks like:
Talking/playing/interacting with children
Helping children solve conflicts (Did you like it? Strategy)
Listening to children as they speak/play
Observing children closely
Walking around
If you see anything that calls your attention about a child's behavior, contact his or her teacher immediately to follow up.
Remember to:
Send a nice email!
Send a voice note
Send a picture
Go and see that person
Write a note!
Let's keep on building a culture of trust and collaboration! 😍🤩😘

I am going to help you ______.
I am going to keep you safe ____.
Is that safe? Is that helpful or hurtful? Remember my job is to keep you safe, and your job is to help me keep it safe.
Copy me please! 🤩
Please remember to send nice to know emails to parents as often as possible.
2 or 3 lines sharing something positive about a student will go a long way.
It builds strong relationships with families and students.
New Information!
Remember to feed the compostera every day.
The classes that have gardening during HANDS, will be able to take care of the garden, use the compost as "plant food" and pour the grade level organic waste.
1st grade: please plan for 10 minutes throughout the week to come and use it.
