Black History Month Project

Dear Parents,  February is Black History Month, and our students are going to celebrate it in the most exciting way. Students will research their randomly selected African American, create a poster with all of the information included, and give a 1-2 minute speech about their assigned person.  Students will turn in their posters on Friday, February 22, 2019. Our presentations will take place on Monday, February 25th during students’ class time. I will be inviting other grade levels to attend, and I would love if you could join us.  In this packet, I have included a suggested timeline for the project, a research recording sheet, resource log, poster information, and rubric. Students should return their recording sheet and resource log with their poster on February 22.  I look forward to celebrating Black History Month with the students, and I can’t wait to see the incredible projects! If you have any questions or concerns, please send me an ema...

A Letter to the Littles

Dear Clever Kids, For the next two weeks you will take the Tennessee Comprehensive Assessment Program (TCAP/TN Ready) exams for Math, Reading, Science, and Social Studies. I know how hard you have been working, but there is something important that I want you to know… The TCAP/TN Ready tests do not assess  all   of what makes each of you unique, special, and  SMART . The people who create these tests do not know each of you the way that I do, and certainly not the way your families do.  They do not know that some of you sing or draw. They have not seen your natural acting ability. They do not know your friends count on you to be there for them (and you are), that your laughter and jokes can brighten people’s day, and that you set examples for the younger children. They do not know you participate in sports, wonder about your future, or sometimes help your siblings after school. They do not know that you demonstrate all of the Campus Tiger Prid...
