Because we have such an urgent mission and need to maximize all of our learning time, we teach our students some hand signals so that they can quickly and efficiently communicate their needs to us. This ensures that needs interrupt instruction as little as possible and remain off-stage. These signals will be taught week 1 of instruction.

I have always notified the parents and asked them for their interest in their child looping with the teacher. I let them know, and that they have the option of doing so (looping) or having their child in another teacher‘s grade class. I would never put a child with a teacher two years in a row without letting parents know or giving them some input. Most of the time they are very happy, however, if unhappy it’s better to get ahead of it. I include the benefits of looping. Research and data collection on looping, over the years, have shown numerous advantages including the following: ● Stronger student/teacher relationships ● Less time spent initiating beginning of the year classroom expectations and routines ● Increased consistency for students ● Reduced apprehension regarding the upcoming school year ● Familiarity with teaching/learning styles ● Increased instructional time leading to increased student achievement. ● Stronger parent relationships ● Opportunities to better differentiate and individualize content to meet student needs. ● Improved attendance and fewer retentions ● Stronger sense of community in the classroom

Why Personality Tests? A personality test is completed to yield a description of an individual’s distinct personality traits. In most instances, your personality will influence relationships with your family, friends, and classmates and contribute to your health and well being. Teachers can administer a personality test in class to help your children discover their strengths and developmental needs. The driving force behind administering a personality test is to open up lines of communication and bring students together to have a higher appreciation for one another. A personality test can provide guidance to teachers of what teaching strategies will be the most effective for their students. Personality test can benefit your students by: Increasing productivity Get along better with classmates Help students realize their full potential Identify teaching strategies for students Help students appreciate other personality types One of the most popular personality tests is the True Colors Personality Test. This personality test asks a serious of questions to rate your likes and dislikes. The test will then rate your personality as either a blue, green, orange or gold personality type. You may be a combination of two colors, but usually a student will exhibit one primary color. A personality test is not a means to type cast a student, but it allows teachers to understand the personality attributes associated with various students. You will operate as one primary color for the most part, but high levels of stress and other environmental factors can shift your personality type for short intervals. As a rule of thumb, you should recognize your strong attributes and keep in mind the attributes that irritate people. Teachers should disseminate a personality test to their children the first week of school. A personality test is a fun exercise for the class and will enable the teacher to more adequately plan lessons and activities for their students. I also used it with teachers on PD and they enjoyed it and used the results to form PLCS and committees. It helps you to better understand yourself and the groups you are dealing with
