April 2nd - 13th

Greetings! I'm sorry for the missed entry last week. There has been A LOT going on over here!

As always, we've been participating in Mentor/Mentee Mondays, as well as Tutoring Tuesdays. During our YESS lesson days, we've been studying accountability. My favorite visual for teaching this concept is the Accountability Ladder and it's always enjoyable to share stories of times students were on various levels of this metaphorical ladder.


Because of testing, we've been incorporating loads of Kagan structures and we've definitely reached the time of the year when scholars are dragging their feet. In one class, we hosted a restorative circle to amend our Shared Agreements and refocus our energies on learning as much as possible.

On the plus side, I have two students who will be speaking at our annual YESS Road to Success Breakfast, which will take place on April 25th. They're thrilled to be able to share their story of empowerment with the attendees and I couldn't be more proud of their progress!
