Winter is Coming by Ms. Travis

Book Fair number 2 is completed!  The profits were not there this time.  I feel it was too soon after the last one so next year we will only be doing 2....winter and spring!  After talking with our Scholastic Rep., the decision was made.  The fairs take time for me and the Techsperts.  I want to focus our attentions on other things as well as the book fairs.  Before the parent group took over, I only hosted 2 fairs.  The parent group wanted to make more money so they hosted 3.

I am reading articles for my PDP.  I am improving the space plus trying to make the space more critical thinking, problem solving and collaborative.  I will also complete a couple webinars on the subject as well.  I enjoy keeping updated on the ideas that help us improve our space.  Student engagement is a huge part of the ideas that I am researching.  I want items and materials in this space to be relevant and useful.  I want the space to be used and not just sitting here empty.  I love to have students in here using the guitars, vr items, and more.  It means that all the time and effort put into selecting things to enhance the curriculum is worth it.

I think everyone is looking forward to winter break.  We all need to refresh our batteries so we can finish off the year strong.  Everyone enjoy your break and we will see you in the new year!
