We had a great time with our scavenger hunt today! Munasar took first place! When we play again we will play two games and have two winners! Everyone did such a great job! These games are fun, but they also give us a lot of information about our students in a short amount of time. They answer questions such as:

• Do students know where the items are in their house? (If they are using them they should know)
• Do they use these items to practice daily living skills?
• Do they sit and wait for someone to find the items for them or do they do it themselves? (If they wait for someone to help them, they likely do this in other areas too)
• Do they understand the curriculum (food groups, money)?
• Do they give up easily or keep going? (stamina on the job)

Next week:

• We will start to implement our Healthy Lunch and Fitness programs at Hype.
• Monday will be a pizza party from one of the bus drivers for the in-person students. Students do not need a lunch but will need to bring their own drink. Students are not allowed to bring pop to Hype – please bring water, flavored water, gator-ade, juice, carbonated water, etc.
• Friday is scheduled to be a half day for professional development. I haven’t received any details on that yet – please watch for further information.

That’s it for now! I hope everyone enjoys their weekend! It looks beautiful right now!
