This month's character trait is creativity. Creativity is defined as the use of the imagination or original ideas, sometimes in the production of an artistic work. To extend learning from school to home, we encourage you to talk about this character trait with your child(ren). Some good questions to encourage discussion are:
- Why is being creative an important trait?
Outside of doing art, what other things show creativity?
What would happen if nobody was brave enough to be creative?
If you've ever wondered what Wednesday afternoons look like at Middleton when our students leave an hour early and our teachers engage in Professional Learning Communities, read on....
A Professional Learning Community (PLC) is an ongoing process in which educators work collaboratively to achieve better results for students. At Middleton, our grade level teams work together every Wednesday afternoon to look over data, analyze student progress, and then plan interventions and extensions to support all of our learners. Teachers are committed to their own learning and growth as well as the learning of every student. This week, our 4th grade teachers looked over spelling assessments to determine the individual needs of every student. After analyzing the assessments, students were grouped based on specific needs and lessons were then planned accordingly. Over the next few weeks, teachers will monitor the progress of every student and make adjustments as needed. This is just one example of what a grade level team might do during a PLC.
At Back-to-School-Night, you may have noticed the map in the front hall of the school, noting the cultural heritage of some of our staff members. We would love to include our students and their families on this map as well. If you are interested in this, please complete THIS SURVEY.
