A little bit of a stretch but the light of the projector today as Secondary Coaches presented at our District Principal/Coach Meeting.
It was great being able to share everything we have been doing in our PLCs with them!

Day 13: Composition
com·po·si·tion
ˌkämpəˈziSH(ə)n/
noun
- 1.the nature of something's ingredients or constituents; the way in which a whole or mixture is made up
- 2. a work of music, literature, or art
Today we had our first snow in the valley! I spent the day (really early this morning) playing in the snow with my daughter. I chose the pictures of her making a snowman for today's challenge. It is definitely a piece of art. The composition of the snowman were: atmospheric water vapor frozen into ice crystals and falling in light white flakes or lying on the ground as a white layer.
Here's to a possible snow day tomorrow!

...an empty Christmas card box! Because that means I have finished all my Christmas cards and they are ready to be mailed off on Monday!

Day 11: Green
Today we were short on subs, so I stepped in and taught 6th grade math. Needless to say I'm a bit tired after a week of teaching teachers in our Distrtict PLCs.
This teacher is a small Packers fan!

Day 10: R is for...
RUBRIC!
Today was our last Secondary District PLC, whew!
Our timeline for this PLC was that our teachers were working in grade level teams and/or subject area teams. They had to use their pacing guides from last year (they had prioritized their standards and created standards pacing guides) and determine which standards they wanted to created a District Summative Assessment from. Once they decided which standards they wanted to assess they began creating standards rubrics for the standards they chose (we are a Standards Based Teaching, Grading, and Learning district).
One way to guide the teachers into creating these rubrics was to use and activity called Ramp It Up! (click here to view the activity).
It was a great way to show them our process/steps for creating their rubrics.
Here is a link to our template for creating Standards Rubrics.

Day 8: I Shop Here; Day 9: This is the Weather Today
Day 8: I Shop Here
Since I am posting these from school I decided to show you were I "shop" at school...our supply cabinet. I must say I like having the supply cabinet available for us instead of having to predict how many staples I'll use in the year, how many paper clips, etc. If I run out I just head to the cabinet.
Day 9: This is the Weather Today
If you have watched the news most of Oregon and Washington are getting hit pretty hard with rain. You may say...well you live in Oregon where it rains all the time right!?!?
Nope! We actually are in the middle of a drought, it was pretty bad this summer...so the rain and even snow is welcome!
