Greetings ELAR Teachers!

We have a new shared Google Drive that houses all of your planning materials. Below you will find a brief video introduction that explains how to navigate through the different folders. You may pause and/or replay this video as often as you'd like.

Five Elements of a Positive Classroom Environment (Click for the Full Article)

1. Positive asset-based relationships are visible among all in the classroom.

2. Students have voice and choice in matters that pertain to them.

3. Lessons are made relevant by connecting the curriculum to students’ lives.

4. The classroom physical environment responds to students’ learning preferences.

5. Routines and practices have a predictable rhythm.

Study Island Launch

Study Island training will take place on October 7, 2019 for teachers Grades 3-8 at Fallbrook. Details will be provided at a later date. Your campus director will receive an email with the login information for your campus once students have been added to the platform. Until then, we would like to place a focus on the New Into Reading and Into Literature Curriculum.

Reading 3-5 BOY

Teachers, initially the BOY was going to be administered online using our new Into Reading Curriculum. Due to the online component delays, I have linked an assessment to the first week of the calendar that can be used to gauge your student's academic performance. If you have any questions please do no hesitate to contact me. mailto:brcollins@responsiveed.com

Hello Early Childhood Team,

We have hit the ground running and I have been so excited to see and hear from you! If you have not done so already, please take a look into our 19-20 THRIVE Early Childhood Team Folder. Inside you will find information regarding the Early Reading Inventory Assessment for grades K-2. The window for this opens September 3rd and closes October 4. The Early Reading Inventory Assessments used are MONDO for Austin, Beaumont, Clay, Fallbrook, Garland, Humble, and Pasadena. TPRI is used by Eastex-Jensen, Fehl-Price, Mainland, and Westchase. After reviewing the administration directions with your team and/or Instructional Coach, please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions regarding administering the assessment. I am eager to support you all!

Hats off to our Writing Team,

Evidence of daily writing can be seen across all campuses! Let's celebrate that! Keep the momentum going and rehearse the writing process with each and every scholar within our THRIVE campuses. Laying the foundation is crucial and will payoff exponentially as the year progresses. For our 3rd-8th grade writing teachers, let's hold strong to our commitment of the daily implementation of Daily Paragraph Editing by Evan Moor. I promise we will see the benefits for years to come as we strive for excellence and deliver our incredible curriculum with fidelity.

Send me some videos of your scholars teaching the Writing Process and don't hesitate to reach out for a refresher or support!

I am here for you!

Keep THRIVING,

Lillian Pope
