Reminders

• Math Trainings this week. This is note from Aaron Rumack:     
• Morning sessions are 8:30-11:30 a.m. and afternoon sessions are 12:55-3:55 p.m. Thank you all for your help with setting up these trainings! 
• First, we'll meet with Janis in the location listed to understand a lesson and plan what to observe from kids. Then, we'll head to a class (indicated in parentheses) for the actual lesson. After that, we'll return to the original location to debrief what we've seen. We'll learn together and ask teachers to choose goals for their own classroom practices. Our Early Learning team will dig into Bridges pilot materials rather than hosting a Learning Lab.
• Walk-a-thon is on Friday.
