9/26 - Clark, Kindergarten fun and Meetings

Started the day at Clark Elementary school.  Spent time in MANY classrooms form kindergarten to 5th grade.  I got the chance to experience the "apple orchard" project

Afterwords I went back to the office to check in, eat lunch and prepare for the rest of the day's activities.  I also sent thank you e-mails to all of those who I went into their room.

At 12:30 I met with Dr. Simpson about scheduling the facilitators meetings for Science/Social studies. We developed a process that included:

• Bold from other facilitators
• vet with principals
• look at dates
• book rooms
• Assign after school dates
• send email

At 1:20 I went into a kindergarten classroom at Edgar road to watch/facilitate force and motion lessons. Kindergarten students are so much fun to be around!

Then at 3:30 I headed over to Hixson to plan for the 2nd/3rd year teacher meetings happening on 10/18 as a half day professional development.

Agenda included:

• Developing learning goals
• Developing a theme for the year
• Timing out tasks for the day
• Brainstorming future topics
