1 Dragon Newsletter GETTING TO KNOW OUR STAFF: SUZANNE PIZZO Ms. Suzanne Pizzo teaches 7th grade reading and this is her first year at Seagoville Middle School. Ms. Pizzo comes from a lifelong appreciation of literature and the arts. After graduating from Ursuline Academy and the University of Texas at Dallas, she moved to London, England on a limited student visa that allowed her to work in Dublin, Ireland as well. Living outside the US has informed her worldview ever since and she still loves to travel, visiting Italy, Belgium France, Scotland, Wales, Canada as well as favorite US spots like New York City, San Francisco, Washington DC, Chicago, and Colorado. She is also a wife and mother. Her husband is a photographer for Neiman Marcus, and she has 2 teenage children in high school, Henry, 18 years old, and Josie-aged 17. In this screen saturated world, she believes that reading is the root of all human knowledge and that her role as a teacher is one of the most important one can have. Some of her favorite authors include Margaret Atwood, F. Scott Fitzgerald, and Sherwood Anderson. Suzanne Pizzo Reading 7 th Grade A Message from our Principal: We continue to make great strides toward our vision of becoming the Premier Middle School in the Dallas Independent School District.

7 Student exposure to college The AVID students went on a wonderful college field trip to see UNT campus in Denton on Wednesday! We saw the dorms, many academic buildings, admissions, and even ate at the buffet! The kids and chaperones had a great time! Thanks to Mrs. Lewis, Mrs. Calvin, Mr. Bekerman (who took five of his sped students), Mrs. Mary Smith, and 4 parent volunteers for making this trip awesome! We had a great time, and he experience was great for our students!
8 Spanish and English Classes for Parents The Spanish and English classes for parents resumed this week with an increase in the enrollment numbers. This week we provided services to 60 parents. Seagoville Middle School teachers prepare basic English and Spanish lessons for this group of enthusiastic parents. Once again, thank you Ms. Becerril, Ms. Lopez, Ms. Benitez, Mr. Martinez, Ms. Smith, and Ms. Williams-Jordan for supporting this initiative for our SMS parents.
9 Parents who attended Spanish and English classes on Wednesday and Thursday received the benefit of child care. Ms. Kim Smith and Ms. Linda Williams-Jordan helped children with their homework and assigned tasks that kept the students occupied in productive activities.
10 The Power of Protocols Tina Ellis Triad Protocol Purpose: This protocol is useful for getting and giving feedback on work in progress such as revising curriculum, conducting assessments, or developing policies and processes. Setup: 1. Take 5 minutes to form small groups of 3. Pre-assigned grouping will help reduce time needed for this step. 2. In the triad, have participants determine who will be A, B, and C. (3-5 minutes total) Process: 1. ROUND 1: A is the presenter in round 1. This person describes an aspect of professional practice. 2. B is the discussant in round 1. This person listens and responds to what person A is saying with a comment, question, example, or detail that builds upon what person A is saying. 3. C is the observer in round 1. They listen quietly, saying nothing and taking notes. After A and B have talked, C summarizes what they have said, ads comes, and presents some conclusions. (12-15 minutes) 4. ROUND 2: Participants change roles so that each triad has a different A, B, and C. Participants perform their new roles as executed in Round 1. (12-15 minutes) 5. ROUND 3: Participants change roles such that each triad has a different A, B, and C. Participants perform their new roles as executed in Round 1. Each participant should be fulfilling the final role in the triad. (12-15 minutes) 6. Reflections and Debrief: Participants take time to reflect and debrief. Participants ask and answer questions during this time. (8-10 minutes) From School Reform Initiative; I Love My School Mary Pizzo This week s SMS role model student is Kylie Griffin, a 7th grader at Seagoville Middle School. She is the youngest of four children. She loves sports and participates in Cheer and Volleyball. She and her family like to go to the Galleria and shop, especially her favorite store- Pink. Kylie would like to take her love of fashion and turn it into a career. She wants to become a fashion photographer after attending college. For Kylie, the best part of school is seeing her friends and talking with her classmates.
11 Time to Teach Wayne Bollin The Negative Ripple Effect It is human nature to sympathize with the underdog, and our students are only human. When they witness any power struggle between teacher and classmates, they are very likely to side with the classmate, even when that classmate is guilty as charged, especially if the classmate appears to be losing. Never forget that when you take on one child, you are really taking on him (or her) along with twenty-eight of their classmates. Children are trustworthy. They will support one another, even if you are right. So what might begin as the exchange between teacher and student can quickly become an issue between a teacher and an entire class. Like ripples in a pond, negative energy has disturbed the placid surface of the learning environment and caused monumental frustration. We do not want to start those ripples. They do not vanish at the dry edges of the pond. They reverberate back and forth over a long period of time. The same holds for your classroom. Cumbersome Bookkeeping Systems Countless discipline systems require teachers to document student misbehavior. In some systems, the paperwork goes to the office, often in the form of a referral. In other systems, teachers keep track of how many warnings students have been given, in order to lower the boom at warning # (fill in the blank). Some teachers voluntarily document troubling incidents, especially in the case of problem students. The amount of time spent writing things up can be immense. How many teachers have despaired, Dealing with all this discipline leaves me with no time to teach! And yet common sense (and the school district attorney) tell us that misbehavior needs documentation. We need a way to document incidents in a minimum time. The Counselors Corner Latonya Calvin 3 Ways A School Counselors Can Help Students, Parents Academic support: Services for students who are struggling academically often go underused, I think sometimes students are embarrassed to ask for help or some students may have had a bad experience with a school counselor. Counselors can sit down with the student's teachers, for example or connect students with peers dealing with similar struggles so they can learn from one another. Group counseling offers content on establishing good study habits and patterns, which students can use throughout their academic careers. Parental counseling and support: Counselors can offer families strategies on parenting and helpful advice on how to connect with their children. "I've had a lot of parents come in that have said, I don't know what to do. How do I handle when my teenager is doing this, this and this at home? Sometimes I recommend family therapy if there are more serious issues at home but connecting with working parents can be a challenge. I recommend parents arrange a one-on-one appointment with their child's school counselor as a good first step in establishing the parent-school counselor relationship. Individual counseling: Students can seek one-on-one help from their school counselor to discuss personal issues, such as bullying, or seek crisis counseling. Sometimes there's a myth that we do therapy in schools and that's not true. School counselors are trained to be the front line in terms of assessing what the issues are in a child's life, but if they feel something more in-depth is going on they'll refer the student to a therapist. I inform my students upfront that their conversation is confidential unless the student divulges something that relates to his or her safety.
