Elliott 09-10 Staff Meeting Classroom Management and Student with Special Needs

9/2/2009

3:00PM-4:30PM

Elliott Elementary

  1. Staff Addresses – This is an oldie, but a goody. Everyone must update their information in Staff Addresses in Public Folders. I can tell if you have or have not by looking at your work telephone number, so please update it. This is important for the school to be able to contact you. E-mail me if you need help on this matter. Paras can e-mail me their information to update.

  1. Extra Cords or Cables – You know those extra cords and cables that you use to decorate the inside of your closet? Well Bill and I would love to take those off your hands. Please send those down to us.

  1. Website of the Week EPals – This is a district purchased e-mail service website that connects classrooms around the world. You can connect to other classrooms in the school, state, country, world, solar system, universe, time-space continuum, etc. Ms. Martinez’s class used it last year when entering a video contest (which some of her students won awards for). Mr. Sorrows is using it this year for Web 2.0 websites that require registration. E-mail me and I will create secure e-mail addresses for your students that are monitored by you. Nothing goes in or out without your permission. Besides being educationally useful, you will look cool to your students. And, really, isn’t that what education is all about.
