After talking with the construction supervisor, we decided that it would be best to keep students on the fenced in portion of the playground for next week. The large trucks will be coming in on the road and dumping materials in the area northwest of the playground. A backhoe will be going back and forth in the area just west of the fence to carry the construction rock and materials from the road to the upper area behind the building. Next week is Constitution Week. We are required to spend some time discussing the Constitution and it’s importance to our country. During the past several years, many resources have been made available. Please contact me if you would like any resources about the Constitution. Sometime next week, two consultants trained in Instructional Practices Inventories (IPI) will be visiting our school to collect information about student learning experiences. On September 22, we will bring in two subs so that elementary teachers can accompany administrators on walkthroughs during the entire day. I will be creating a schedule, so that many elementary teachers will have the opportunity to participate. I will have this information for you next week. Iowa State is asking if any teachers are interested having a student teacher during the Spring Semester-2011. Let me know if you are interested. (I would only plan on one teacher) Please put your room number on any maintenance requests. It is very helpful for our new maintenance personnel in locating your room.
