Notes

  • Friday! Everyone have a great weekend, we will get back to our “normal” 5 day work week on Monday.
  • After our Speed Design today we are going to walk down to Pre Tech 2 to test out some Pinball Machines. Please remind me if I forget!
  • Lots of sickness today. This could happen at states, and has happened at nationals. Some will be partnerless today and all the work will fall on you. We must do the best we can, the deadline is the deadline.
  • Nature is Neat

2:20 Dailies

2:25 “19 Minutes”

4 of 5 days per week we will end our day in CAWD with the “19 Minutes” of silent reading. Closing down our day with silent reading provides many benefits:

  • Improve Literacy Skills / Reading Stamina
  • Create space for a small reading meditation where we can disconnect from the world and get lost in a story
  • Unplug

At 2:44 each day I will come to 3 students and ask for a 1 sentence explanation of what happened in your story over that day’s reading session. It is neat to hear little pockets of a story, here and there.

2:45 Dismissal
