Day #7

We attended an assembly today in celebration of Red Ribbon week. The students loved watching the Vernal City drug dog spot the drugs in a box.

I attended a district meeting at Maeser Elementary along with all the other 4th grade teachers in the district. I was happy to see Melanie there and enjoyed sitting with her. The teachers discussed the growth they've seen since their last meeting together and set goals for the next meeting. The teachers from Lapoint and Eagle View shared their unit they created for the next science and writing subject which is weather. Rosa Eaton shared a video of her modeling the writing process to her students. She emphasized modeling and thinking aloud to students. District specialists say they do not see enough modeling done. This is one of the things I learned well in my education last year...and now I am so glad to have it. I can never model too much for my students!
