FACULTY


PLC TIDBIT OF THE DAY: Nothing is more motivating and energizing for a group of educators than learning something new and useful—especially if what’s learned ahs potential impact on their teaching and children’s learning. Learning happens when: theory and practice interact; past experience and new knowledge meet; data confirm or negate perceptions; separate, isolated events of facts emerge into patterns, trends, or new ideas; two or more individuals’ creative potentials collide. (Radford)

STAFF: BOOKS ARE FUN is set up in the Attendance Office. This is the last time they’ll be here before the holidays. Orders must be in by tomorrow, Tuesday, November 24th. (Butler)
