I've also enjoyed seeing some of the students maturity levels increase over the summer. ]]> 2017-08-04 02:42:12 UTC https://padlet.com/baca_cunningham/i3nmd99lxydq/wish/180096253 https://padlet.com/baca_cunningham/i3nmd99lxydq/wish/180096545 Helping them grow into better students and kids.]]> 2017-08-04 02:45:07 UTC https://padlet.com/baca_cunningham/i3nmd99lxydq/wish/180096545 https://padlet.com/baca_cunningham/i3nmd99lxydq/wish/180116933 2017-08-04 10:04:26 UTC https://padlet.com/baca_cunningham/i3nmd99lxydq/wish/180116933 https://padlet.com/baca_cunningham/i3nmd99lxydq/wish/180119910 2017-08-04 11:43:09 UTC https://padlet.com/baca_cunningham/i3nmd99lxydq/wish/180119910 https://padlet.com/baca_cunningham/i3nmd99lxydq/wish/180123369 The kiddos appear to have goals and they speak about them as if they have processed how to achieve them. The students seem  excited and they approach us because they know our staff is approachable. As I look at these first couple of days are kids appear to feel safe and comfortable at  Bon-Air which should result in having a productive school year.]]> 2017-08-04 12:52:01 UTC https://padlet.com/baca_cunningham/i3nmd99lxydq/wish/180123369 https://padlet.com/baca_cunningham/i3nmd99lxydq/wish/180126576 I am excited about our NEW staff. For the first time in my career here at BAMS,  I feel CONFIDENT that we are going to do better, see better and be better!  Positive Energy, Great Atmosphere, the kids have no other option than to ACHIEVE. When we do better, our kids do BETTER and it INSPIRES them to be better! Let's GO BAMS!]]> 2017-08-04 13:40:40 UTC https://padlet.com/baca_cunningham/i3nmd99lxydq/wish/180126576 https://padlet.com/baca_cunningham/i3nmd99lxydq/wish/180127777 Getting to know the incoming sixth grades and their immaturity but their curiosity about Middle School. The seventh graders who are now feeling confident with middle school and knowing they have it mastered. Its funny seeing them try and teach the sixth graders the dos and don'ts . The eight graders are all ready to be the leaders of the school. Seeing their maturity is the best for me because they have finally reached the top.  Most importantly, seeing how eager they are to be in our wonderful teachers presence is the biggest JOY for me.]]> 2017-08-04 13:56:15 UTC https://padlet.com/baca_cunningham/i3nmd99lxydq/wish/180127777 https://padlet.com/baca_cunningham/i3nmd99lxydq/wish/180127810
Even though I haven't had these seventh graders long, they are doing what I am asking of them!  I am enjoying them already!]]> 2017-08-04 13:56:54 UTC https://padlet.com/baca_cunningham/i3nmd99lxydq/wish/180127810 https://padlet.com/baca_cunningham/i3nmd99lxydq/wish/180128070 Students need you to BE PATIENT!  Students need to be Adored!
Students need Merits! 
Students are Strong! 

Notice, the first letter in each word...Students need you, BAMS!
Together we are a village and they need us.]]> 2017-08-04 14:00:44 UTC https://padlet.com/baca_cunningham/i3nmd99lxydq/wish/180128070 https://padlet.com/baca_cunningham/i3nmd99lxydq/wish/180128824 The majority of our kiddos WANT to be here with us and NEED to be here with us!]]> 2017-08-04 14:13:16 UTC https://padlet.com/baca_cunningham/i3nmd99lxydq/wish/180128824 https://padlet.com/baca_cunningham/i3nmd99lxydq/wish/180128914 I love our 6th grade class sizes!  Since the classes are smaller, I know most names already, and I'm learning a lot about them.  They seem eager to participate and work. ]]> 2017-08-04 14:15:04 UTC https://padlet.com/baca_cunningham/i3nmd99lxydq/wish/180128914 https://padlet.com/baca_cunningham/i3nmd99lxydq/wish/180202483 Shiann - one of our new 8th graders.  We have chatted quite a bit already.  Anthony Garren - already have a nice nickname for him.  8th graders came ready to engage!

I gave a long pre assessment Friday and the students definitely tried.
