Facilitated the sorting activity with 6th grade and encore teachers to gain further clarification on the details included on the CCSS.

I had lunch at Bread Co and met with 7th grade social studies teachers.  We discussed assessment creation, revision, and grading.

I then went over to Hixson.

I met with teachers of 8th and 7th grade science and social studies to check in.

I met with 8th grade science department chair to plan the 18th full-day curriculum workshop.

I then went over to Edgar road to clean up and unpack items taken home for the holidays.  The network was inconsistent so I went home to answer emails.
