10:15 Our Schedule

Our Schedule – I’ll do my best to explain the flow of each Cawd day. A visual schedule can be found by following this link. Let’s also look at the CTE block schedules.

10:20 The Handbook

The CTE Handbook is a guide to help understand the culture and expectations at CTE. The main points I want to cover are:

Behavior – Kindness and Respect (Page 8)
Harassment & Bullying (Page 12)
Drugs / Alcohol / Tobacco & Weapons (this does not sound like our students – Page 21)
School Closings and Drills – (Page 33)
Technology Usage / AI / Academic Honesty(Page 47)

10:30 Time Capsules

Time Capsule – This is always fun – each of you are going to write a note to yourself. Only you will see this note. We’ll seal it today and open on the last day of class at the end of the school year. Last year we had a lot of fun with this. Use the envelope and the sticky note I’ve provided to you.

Suggested Prompt – What is something you’d like to accomplish by the end of this school year? What would you like to say to your future self when the school year is over?

When you are done, you’ll store your letter to yourself in your classroom folder found by the whiteboard.
