Primary Sub School News

Hi everyone

A few items for your attention:

IEPs

Semester 2 IEP goals will need to be finalised by the end of this term.  There will be professional learning during our first PLC meeting together in Week 5, where we will be making our IEP goals SMART and more specific to the needs of our students.

Following the timeline, weeks 1-4 are revising each student's Semester 1 IEP goal progress to determine whether these goals need to be 'rolled over' OR if new IEP goals need to be set for Semester 2.

CTM

Please can I ask that your CTM has been populated with students' learning goals ready to discuss at your meeting.   If you would like me to be norm monitor/timekeeper/note taker, please let me know.

Production:

All classes should have now added their music to the Google sheet sent by Amanda.  Week 4 jobs include:

1. Book the Yaluk building for rehearsal time with your students
2. Continue to practice your production item. Continue working on your backdrop and/or props.
3. Practice performing in your costumes.

Classroom Walls:

It has been noted that a few classrooms have walls/cupboards that have been written on using permanent markers, pencils and so on. If this is the case, please either remove this yourself, or log it on maintenance to be removed.  Should you wish to record student heights, please utilise tape, and reinforce the message to students that we are not to write or draw on the walls.  Thanks very much for your support with this.

Excursions

Heading into this term we have excursions taking place as well as Kinder Gym - please ensure you remain on top of the excursion to do list ahead of time.  Be sure permission has been given by parents, the activity locator lodged and transport as well as staffing considered.  I urge you to touch base with both myself and the admin staff in the weeks leading up to the excursion to ensure you have a second set of eyes over documentation, and a sounding board to assist in planning and coordination of the excursion.

Term 3 Assemblies

Please note: if the CLH is unavailable, the assembly will be held by the room for that week in their own classroom and shared through Webex.  If you choose to hold your assembly from your classroom, please send a Webex link by Wednesday of that week.  You will also need to ask a staff member to host from the CLH if available.  I would recommend assigning team members as 'Co-hosts' in case of IT issues.

Let me know if you need any help with setting up Webex.

Next up… Term 3: Week 4: Room 2

                                      Week 6: Room 3

SSGs

This is the final week for SSGs.  Please can you follow up with any families who have not responded and record communications in students' files.  Let me know if you would like me to attend by sending me a calendar invite.  Please be aware that I am supporting Room 1 with their SSGs also.

I hope you have a wonderful week.  Please reach out if I can help in any way.

Best wishes

Michelle
