Week of 8/26 and Thereafter
Core teachers will assign study plans through scheduled posts to Google Classroom each Monday for a weekly PRESENT grade.
Teachers can run reports to determine how many Liftoff Stars a student has obtained or check their Study Plan performance to calculate their weekly PRESENT grade.
Encourage your students to complete their work during ELT to increase their learning, sharpen their skills, and earn rewards.
The data provided by these tools will be used for progress monitoring, determining remediation/enrichment topics, and enhancing our Tier 2 & Tier 3 screening process.
Social and Emotional Learning (SEL) is a vital part of education and human development. We will be using the Second Steps Program to help our students develop skills to cope with everyday challenges and improve academics
If you created Second Step classes last year, they have been reset and are no longer available. You’ll need to create new ones to access materials and teach the lessons.
Please use this link to review the training topics and create your class.
Timeline:

Teachers will begin facilitating the program on August 22 during ELT with Unit 1 lesson 1.
