Teams should be continuing to meet, either in-person or virtually, to prepare for the first weeks of school. Complete the Classroom Plan and begin planning your first few classes.
Teams will have their second check-in with their RM soon. Co-teach teams will be asked to do a Mock Teach as part of this check-in. More on that later in training.
Volunteers should work with their classroom teacher to make sure all start-of-school logistics are taken care of. This often includes things like school background checks, getting school IDs, getting parking passes, determining sign-in/out procedures, etc.
Volunteers will soon be added to the TEALS forums, which are a great resource for sharing ideas and seeking advice from other members of the TEALS community (staff, mentors, and other teaching teams) around the country.
The School Year Kickoff event will take place near the end of the summer. This is a combination final training session, social event, and celebration featuring a Q&A panel with experienced TEALS teachers and volunteers.
