Hi Ms Apple,I am so looking forward to us teaming together and getting the opportunity to assist you in whatever ways possible as you implement the Teaching Pyramid Model. I would like to set up a day next week to come and observe in your classroom. I will need to watch a teacher-directed activity (circle time or story time) and a child-directed activity (centers or free play) and then get together for a brief meeting (10-15mins). I could come in the morning at 8:15 when circle time starts and then we can meet at 11:45 during the scheduled nap, if that sounds good. Please let me know if you have a preference for day of the week.
Thanks so much,Denise
