| Curriculum Coordinator Math Update - Thank you to our LLS Math Curriculum Team members for all of their hard work:
- Sarah Augustine, Karen Wordell, Ann Wilson, Chad Marohn, Ryan Jaeger, Phil Hochmuth, Sarah Marohn, Becky Yagodinski, Adam Glodowski, & Peter Kavicky
- Remaining Meeting Dates:
- February 24, 2023 (12:00pm-3:00pm)

- Update:
- We have narrowed the field down to two remaining math programs.
- We have 6 LLS teachers piloting different levels of these two programs this month as we finalize our recommendation. Thank you to these team members for their willingness to do this work!
- We need to finalize our exit goals for graduation.
- Once our recommendation is finalized:
- The K-8 LLS Math Curriculum Guides will be shared with you via Google Docs.
- A special meeting will be scheduled with principals (or another rep from your school) to share information on our recommendation(s).
Early Childhood - One more EC Professional Development Morning remains:
- Saturday, April 1st- Conducting Effective & Developmentally Appropriate Group Times: Most early childhood programs have at least one large group meeting per day. This training will help providers spice up their group times and motivate children to participate. Age-appropriate group times and activities are emphasized and many new ideas are presented.
- This workshop will be held in the commons at MLHS. A light breakfast and fellowship will begin at 8:30am. The workshop will run from 9am to 11am.
LLS Special Education Team - Schools have 5 testing windows available with Fastbridge. You do not need to utilize all 5; however, our team would recommend a minimum of 3 assessments per year (beginning, middle and end). The summer assessment window serves the purpose of assessing new students coming to your school.
- Keturah Hochmuth is willing to come out to your school to help with your next round of assessments. Email her at khochmuth@mlhslancers.org.
- Big Picture of our work:
- Utilize Fastbridge as a universal screener, dyslexia screener, progress monitoring tool and for Tier 1 & 2 interventions.
- Barton Reading & Spelling Program for Tier 3- training will be provided after 2nd screening:
- Training will be held sometime in late February or early March
- Train on Barton Levels 1-2 this year
- Mentors assigned to your interventionists
- Foundations in Sounds- for those not ready for Barton (Training will be provided in the future)
- Program expansion timeline:
- 2022-2023- Reading- Grades 1-2
- 2023-2024- Math Grades 1-2 / Reading Grade 3
- 2024-2025- Continue to expand 1 grade level per year
- Support implementation of Fastbridge, interventions, and implementation of new programs as we are able.
Summer In-Service Days: - June 5, 6 & 7 are reserved for summer professional development. Please keep these days open on your calendar. Each day will have a specific theme. Not all days will be appropriate for all teachers.
- The 3 themes are:
- Curriculum Work
