FROM THE DESK OF ACADEMIC SUPPORT SERVICES
During exams, we ran a pilot project where teachers created audio recordings of their tests so that students who needed their tests read to them could "hear" their teacher read the assessment to them via recording. This way, we did not have to ask various faculty and staff members to be test readers. 

This process went well and was helpful for all parties involved. Multiple teachers have continued to use this as a resource for students and teachers this semester (thank you!). This reality combined with the fact that the need for support continues to grow has caused us to move towards this practice being the norm.

If you have thoughts, ideas, feedback or additional information that might have a significant impact, please let us know so that we can make the best decisions around this.

Info on how to record in Schoology or using Quicktime: here. 


THANK YOU!

Hey  LAMS Fam ! Thank you so much for a wonderful beginning of a brand new year! I would like to encourage you to dig in and hit the ground running! Students benefit from consistent educational experiences so continue "teaching hard" everyday! Remember to ask deeper questions of your students. Students need varying questions so it is perfectly OKAY to plan who gets specific questions. Be laser focussed and target your instruction so that students leave knowing more. Let's give them our very BEST every day! ~Crystal💜 "And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him."~Colossians 3:17 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜 FACULTY/STAFF DUTY (1/17-1/20) Traffic Greeter- Merritt Awning Supervision- Cain FACULTY/STAFF DUTY (1/23-1/27) Traffic Greeter- Reily Awning Supervision- Reily NIET EVALUATION CYCLE  Second semester classroom observations/walkthro

Hey  LAMS Fam ! We are back to the MIDDLE of the week and off to a great last quarter! Keep in mind, this is not the time to slow down or let up. We need to be consistent with effective teaching strategies in order to see desired outcomes. Consider the information presented during our NIET training. Remember; different students can process the same information differently. How will we provide support for those who need it? Thank you for ALL you do! ~Crystal💜 “What you heard from me, keep as the pattern of sound teaching, with faith and love in Christ Jesus. Guard the good deposit that was entrusted to you--guard it with the help of the Holy Spirit who lives in us."  ~2 Timothy 1:13-14 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜 FACULTY/STAFF DUTY (3/20-24) Traffic Greeter- SHORT Awning Supervision- NIKOLAUS FACULTY/STAFF DUTY (3/27-31) Traffic Greeter- BURRIS Awning Supervision- NIKOLAUS NIET CERTIFICATE FROM 3/1 Print your certificate  here .
