April 9, 2024

*All Substitute notes will be in this color.* 

For my Tuesday, April 9th substitute, please look down the entire length of this webpage to get a feel for what's here BEFORE classes come.  

The resources below will be used with each of the 4 classes you will see today.

8:30 - 9:30 - 5th grade - Scott

9:35 - 10:35 - 3rd grade - Shavers

12:35 - 1:35 - 2nd grade - Gabriel

1:40 - 2:40 - Kindergarten - Carroll

Students should enter the library quietly and go to their assigned seat. (Please check the seating charts and put a checkmark by each student that is present.)  IF a student brings in a library book with them, have them place it in the red milk crate.  I will check them in when I return.  After you have verified that students are in their seats, you may begin.  Try to begin as quickly as possible so the students can see as much of the video as possible.  The whole thing is a little over an hour long, but you can skip the introduction (go to timestamp 2:15) so they can see more of the movie.

Learning Targets/Agenda: (not necessarily in this order)

Students will listen to a movie titled Our Friend, Martin.

Next week: Students will answer questions about the movie when I return.

REMINDER TO STUDENTS: You should NOT be on your Chromebook during the lesson! You will only use them if the substitute says so.  Thank you!  😉

Today, we will learn about Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and some of the events that happened during his lifetime.

Born: January 15, 1929

Died: April 4, 1968   (39 years old, assassinated)

Notable Moments: graduated high school at the age of 15, one of the most prominent civil rights leaders of all time, Montgomery Bus Boycott, March On Washington ("I Have A Dream" speech), was the youngest person to Nobel Peace Prize, and many, many more.

Students' Independent Activity IF the video above will not play: 

Read books at your table (and take AR quizzes on them if you finish them)

Read books on Epic! (Classroom code is wiv5913; some have AR quizzes on Renaissance)

Read books on MyON (and take AR quizzes on them if you finish them)

Work on LexiaCore

Work on Prodigy  

You MAY NOT talk, walk, or play!

Thank you!  :) 

Substitute: About 1-2 minutes before their class time is up, have students stand, push their chair up, and wait as you call tables of students to line up at the exit door (double doors).  Each student should be standing on a black dot (for personal space). NO student should have a library book in their hands.  After they leave, scroll back to the top of this page to repeat all for the next class.

Thank you so much for covering for me!   😃

Please turn the power off on the interactive whiteboard at the end of the day.  

The computer is fine; it will time itself out.
