Talladega City Schools Pre-K Program

Hal Henderson is home of the Talladega City Schools Pre-K Program. Mrs. Angela Capers, a "highly qualified" teacher with exceptional talents, developed the program during the 2008-2009 academic year. Mrs. Karen Graves, a "highly qualified" paraprofessional, works collaboratively with the 2010-2011 teacher, Mrs. Patricia Cook, to continously move the program forward. Mrs. Cook was previously our State Department of Education Technical Assistant who evaluated our program. We have 18 students enrolled in Pre-K. I am also pleased to announce that our site has been recognized by the State Department of Education as "exemplary."

"THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK"

"The way we present questions and manage student responses stimulates thinking and reinforces our teaching."

Something to think about.....

1. Do students in your classroom routinely disengage while another student is proving an answer? What approach do you use when this happens?

2. What the the positives and negatives associated with accepting multiple responses before responding to answers.

3. How do you avoid pitting students against each other as they present their responses to questions?

4. What strategies do you use to keep students thinking after you ask a question?
