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!

"RELATIONSHIPS ARE BEST BUILT ONE PERSON AT A TIME."

Something to think about....

1. What is your immediate reaction to the idea of asking a sixty-second question rather than giving a sixty-second lecture?

2. Asking questions lead to effective time management.

3. Suggest questions that can be used to find out what a student is thinking.

4. Think, "Silence can be used effectively to draw out a student."

5. In what way do questions validate students?
