Second Step: Please remember to mark your lessons as completed once you are done.
By the end of August, all teachers should have:
1. Created their Second Step class

As a general guide 1 lesson per week gets you through the 20 so that they are taught prior to the end of the year.

PBIS: Please continue to review all expectations with your students on a daily basis.

Duty Schedule Feedback: Please give us any feedback regarding the Duty schedule and how it was created it this year. This will be your last opportunity to do so.

IXL Folder: Here are some resources that Serena has created for IXL. If you have questions or would like more help with IXL please reach out to her and she will be happy to assist.

Starstruck: Please make sure your families know when the performance night for your class will be. Click here for the schedule. Students are required to stay for both performances on their night.

Toys: We are seeing that students are bringing toys to school. Please let them know that those are to remain at home or they will be confiscated and returned to parents at the end of the day.

Trampolines and vibration plates: These cannot be used in classrooms where they are out and available for students to access. These tools may be used in a motor room under the guidance and supervision of an OT or COTA. If you currently have either of these items in their classrooms or pod, please  remove the items. If you have questions about alternative ways to provide movement breaks or similar sensory input for their students, please let me know and I'll connect you with our site's occupational therapist, Victoria.

Park Use: If you are planning to take your class to the park, please communicate with your families in advance to share the plan and provide them with the opportunity to opt out. 

Duck Challenge: Don't forget to send me your Duck photos. I'll share them with the staff whenever I receive them.

Emergency Contact: If there is ever a reason that you need to get a hold of me please save my number. Feel free to text Richard Prestedge cell# 916-529-3255
