| Wearing the Captain's Band |
Good Evening, You may have noticed a red folder in your child's homework bag today. This folder should remain in their bag for a period of time. It is basically the paper they would need to work on their passports if we were suddenly moved to remote learning and didn't have access to the classroom. I am not worried that we will have to use it but want to be prepared just in case. Your child may have mentioned that my daughter, Abby joined our class today. She is a sophomore at Harwood Union, and is taking on an internship this semester. She has an interest in becoming an educator and this will give her a chance to be in the field and be part of the class. She will be joining us on Mondays for the rest of the school year. It was great seeing her connect with so many different kids, as they worked, throughout the day.
Today I introduced the "Captain's Armband" to the class. I talked to them about how captains of teams, ships, planes, are people that lead by example. They are looked at as leaders and can be counted on to do their best. Over the next 16 school days, I will let each student be a captain for the day. They will be the line leader and will help set the tone for the class for that day. I also talked about how being named captain comes with responsibility and we related our classroom responsibilities to this position. Please let me know if you have any questions about this.
