e are always new things for new school years and this year is no exception. I started my week at Prairieview. We had a very different first day this year. All of the students and their homeroom teachers spent the morning of the first day moving through nine stations. One of the stations was the I.M.C. With PBIS as our structure, we introduced a few basic behavior objectives for the I.M.C. and the computer lab. We will try to be respectful, responsible, and safe.At Elizabeth Ide, we are blessed with all new flooring and lots of new paint, as well as a lot of updated equipment, especially in the washrooms. It is certainly nice to have brand new carpeting in the I.M.C. and the surrounding hallways. It is fresh and clean. We started our orientation lessons with the students sitting on the floor. Even the pattern of the carpet helps. I was able to ask the children to sit outside the red area which enabled me to use the computer for my presentation without worrying about bumping into knees or toes.
