ALL CTE WORK DUE TODAY AT EOD OR ZEROS FOREVER
- Week 38 – end of year activities
- Monday – Certification exam (10:30 start) – EHS students that have conflicts make arrangements with that teacher today so you are in the room at 10:30.
- Have to take the exam, part of the program. If you can’t take it Monday, we may invite you back Friday to take it after school is over. This is not what anyone wants, so make sure you are here Monday.
- Tuesday – Movies (CAWD2 wants Garfield if possible). Leaving CAWD at 10:05 sharp. Again, EHS students that have conflicts make arrangements with your teachers today – we are leaving to go on a field trip, we can’t stay, if you can’t come to the movies, you need to have your parent say you are sick for the day or it will be a cut, as we as a program are not going to be here.
- We pay for tickets
- You pay for concessions
- Wednesday – Game Day / Social / Relax
- Not doing food
- Time to get all work off the machines

- Thursday – Recognition Night Rehearsal, Recognition Night – LAST DAY OF CAWD! Everyone get off of work / other stuff so we can end the year with a nice night, get some photos, get some scholarships (I know people in the room that will win $), etc.

As we have finished our in class read-alongs, we are going to get some practice on a real world skill that we all could improve on – public speaking and thinking on your feet.
We will have some giggles, some stress, some practice – low stakes, but good practice.
1:20 Afternoon Break (10 minutes)

This is it, a final, last-minute check and adjustment of your grade! Whatever your gradebook says today when you walk out the door is your grade forever.
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
