Notes
- Friday! Happy Groundhogs Day!
- Skills deliverable due at the start of lunch! Get back from English ASAP. I have seen teams in tears, begging the National Judges for an extra minute or two, and there are no extensions. 12:25.
- Anyone here… have Lake Champlain Salted Caramel chocolates yesterday… and leave them?
- Mia – 1:25 early dismissal! Just head out at break…

2:25 “19 Minutes”
![](https://cawdvt.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/19Minutes-1024x576.jpg)
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
