Week+10+PowerPoint,+Plans,+and+Resources

Greetings Team, My PPT for this week is not complete for Study Skills class. I was in such a rush to leave on Friday that I left my Executive Functions binder. So, I will update on Monday. I received a copy of the district common assessment and writing prompt from Terri. I am trying to complete both this week. Let's all try and keep a focus on "attitude is more important than facts" this week. I know these are tough times and many mandates coming our way seem unrealistic, lacking focus, and burdensome--and to tell the truth, they are! So how do we deal with these stressful factors that serve to distract us from our teaching responsibilities? Well, each of us knows that we only have power over our own actions. Others can only be influenced to do what is right. So we should keep striving to meet mandates and greet criticism with a courageous smile while we continue to keep student learning at the center of all our efforts.
