First Grade Classroom Visitations with Julie Walker<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Bend La Pine’s Early Literacy vision is that ALL students are able to read grade level text by the end of 2nd grade.\u00a0 As part of Bend La Pine’s Early Literacy plan we have built in funds to focus on the following:
1. RGR and EL curriculum implementation
2. Growing literacy expertise and empowering educators to move student achievement forward
3. LETRS and OG training
4. High Dosage Tutoring<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our grant planning committee has designated first grade as a focal point for this work.\u00a0 First grade is a critical growth year in early literacy development.\u00a0 In order to focus the funds on the most impactful initiatives,\u00a0I would appreciate the opportunity to visit classrooms and hear from 1st grade teachers about the strengths and possible barriers in your foundational skills instruction.\u00a0 This is not meant to be an observation but an opportunity for me to learn more.\u00a0 Sign up here to schedule a visit!<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

EL Education Adoption<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

EL Education was adopted by the School Board as our next K-5 ELA Curriculum on February 13th.\u00a0 Implementation work will now begin.\u00a0 Educator Network Day on April 24th from 2:00-3:15 will be our first all elementary classroom teacher introduction to EL.\u00a0 Be on the lookout for the \u201c2024 Summer Professional Learning\u201d brochure, which will have all options for training and courses available this summer.\u00a0 This brochure will be shared with all staff the week before Spring break.\u00a0 Please reach out with any questions.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Forefront Dashboards!<\/strong> You will notice you now have a Dashboard in the sidebar of Forefront. This was created to help facilitate Mid-Year Core Instruction Check-ins that you are doing in your buildings. There is grade level data with questions to reflect on. Reach out to Kerry Morton or your Instructional Coach if you have any questions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
