There was a lot of learning going on at the parent coffee this morning! Michele Arterberry, our English Language Support Teacher (ELST), presented information on the eight Thinking Maps that our staff have taught the students this year. Today, we focused on the Flow Map which helps with the thinking process of SEQUENCE. We demonstrated how to do one, did one together and then had the parents do one on their own. Parents then were shown how to take the information from the Flow Map and create a two to three paragraph essay from it.
Thinking Maps is a school wide program we have taken on. Ask your child's teacher about it! Your kids are doing great things with the maps. We will demonstrate another map at future meetings.
Sincerely,
Mrs. Jenkins-Martin

Supervision
Hello Parents,
We would appreciate your remembering that there is no campus supervision at Johnson before 8:30 a.m. Unless your child is in the 6 to 6 program or you have VERIFIED that they are meeting with a teacher for tutoring or in a club, students should not be here before that time.
After school, students should head directly home or to the auditorium if they ride the bus. Again, unless they are in the above programs or are with a teacher, the campus should be cleared by 3:50 p.m. Please make sure that your child knows the plan for getting home from you before they arrive at school. This avoids unnecessary traffic in the office.
