I really enjoyed the meetings we had online discussing our enduring understandings and essential questions for our Quarter 2 units. Many connections were made and I know we have the got the makings of three great units. But now we have to make them!

We will start this planning process next week by creating scope and sequences for each unit. I will send meeting invites out as follows:

• Tuesday, 2:00-2:40pm: Grades 2 & 3
• Tuesday, 2:45-3:25pm: Grades 4 & 5
• Tuesday, 3:30-4:10pm: Grades PK, K, & 1
• Wednesday, 2-3pm: Specialists*

The goal is to have a planning document shared with you on Monday for you all to review and assign roles. On Tuesday, we will discuss the planning document to make sure we know what needs to be done and who needs to work with who.

The following week we will start developing weekly lessons. One step at a time but we will be stepping quite quickly! 

Creating these units is a very complex task during a very uncertain time. But the late Dr. Ken Robinson would suggest that this is the perfect time to reimagine what education looks like.
