Check Heidi's comment on the last meeting's notes concerning information about the AEA Read Aloud webinar.

Ronda has received word from Mr. VanderPol concerning our request for stipend pay for outside the contract day to attend the webinar..."Will check with SIT team and see if we will be able to do this. Might be a really good thing."

We need to do a better job of replying to meeting posts about what we are doing in our classrooms in regard to reading. :-)

PLC meeting 12/6/10

Here we go again...more log-in troubles now that our gmail and spartanpride.net accounts have merged, but alas here we are posting our meeting notes only one day late!

Our group is interested in the AEA Read-aloud Webinar offering on January 25 (a Tuesday). The Webinar will be offered at 8:00 a.m. and at 3:30 p.m. Do we have Professional Development money available for us to attend one of these sessions. If we attend the 8:00 session, we would need substitutes. If we attend the 3:30 session, would we be able to be paid a per diem stipend for outside of our contract day?

Heidi will check with someone at the AEA about the length of the Webinar.

Homework: Everyone post another reading activity that they are doing with their classes.
