I'm making the change from 7th/8th grade to an elem position that will
require me to work with teachers and students of all 6 grades (k-5). To get
a better idea of how elem functions, would anyone mind telling me some
basic things about how elem is structured differently? Or what the biggest
surprises were if you transitioned form middle to Elem? I remember a little
about calendar and outclasses from when I was an elem library aide but
that was a long time ago and being a classroom teacher is way different. I
want to avoid sticking my foot in my mouth when I begin doing pd in
August. I've been reading blogs of how teachers manage 1 iPad classes in
elem and they are dropping lingo about centers and such and secondary
centers are different!
