So far we are off and running! I can't believe we have been in school over a month. So much has happened and I am looking forward to each and every day.
Mathews has just finished the Cornerstone Review. We were the first of ten schools added to Cornerstone this school year. Cornerstone will help our students learn to read, to write, to think critically, to reason, to analyze, to evaluate information, to communicate effectively in a variety of forms, and to inquire systematically into any important matter. Cornerstone brings rigor and higher order thinking to our students, while also helping them to become responsible for their own learning. Cornerstone is also a program that lends itself to diffirentiation, to meet the needs of all students. Cornerstone promotes literacy through the use of book clubs, a leveled book room will be added, Principal's Pick books will be a school-wide strategy book that will be used at multiple levels to increase diffirentiation. As a result of the school reaview, a time line will be developed to drive the direction of this program. Stay tuned for more information.
