Me - "Can you tell me why we are sitting in the dark?"
Ss - "It's Flash-Light-Friday" "It's when you bring your flashlight to school on Friday, find a quiet dark place in the gym, and lose yourself in a book."

We have learned student readiness begins w the SPIRIT of Generosity. Receiving generosity from others builds the trust needed for us to feel like we belong. We all belong together on this land.

Infusing research based teaching & assessment practices within our task designs which support the 'hard to reach' students, students who require either interventions or extensions, are tasks designed to benefit ALL of our students.

Ss at #CBESomerset begin their day with a ‘soft start’ which mimics the way most of us would likely prefer to start our day, with a chance to settle in before beginning work.

Ss are welcomed in 15min’s before the entry bell.

What would happen IF we taught spelling through a “cohesive” word study approach, which “addressed word recognition, vocabulary, and phonics as well as spelling?” (Zutell, 1992)
