OPINION

First year teachers need support

By Linda S. McKee Education Week A new school year has begun as the nation tries to manage the threat posed by the Coronavirus Delta variant. Parents and teachers alike are focused on the children: How can we keep them safe? How can we help them get back on track after so much turbulence last year? How can we deal with the social-emotional learning challenges created during the last 18 months?

But what about the new teachers, administrators, and others stepping into a classroom or school office for the first time?

Here are five measures that educator-preparation colleges can take this year to help these new educators succeed and lower the damaging rates at which new teachers leave the field: 1. Build and support school learning communities. Both schools and local educator-preparation programs

can help establish and and valuable tool to sustain these inforprovide new teachers mal groups.

Local programs could share their data with schools and districts so that they, too, can aid novice educators. New educators need to be heard to be supported— tis is one way of doing so.

4. Adjust curricula or courses to recognize the social-emotional needs of educators. Social and emotional learning for students has been a topic of much interest during the pandemic. However, it is just as crucial that the social and emotional needs of teachers are addressed as well. This is where educator preparation curricula can integrate coping mechanisms for teachers, stress response training (mindfulness, yoga, and similar modalities are popular), and wellness material.

Designing a public play space for STEM skills

By Brenna Hassinger-Das The Conversation A park bench can be so much more than just a place to sit and wait. Perhaps it has a puzzle built into it, or weights that allow children to make measurements.

As researchers who study the connections between play and development, we are interested in how reimagining public spaces can infuse playful learning opportunities into children’s time spent outside of school.

In a July 2021 article we wrote for the peer-reviewed journal Trends in Cognitive Science, we outline how experts can help communities create fun public spaces where children can learn as they play.

To support children’s learning, public play spaces need to be designed in line with the six principles of learning, which reflect how children absorb new information most effectively.

According to the six principles, activities should be active or “minds-on,” not passive.

They should require participants be engaged, not distracted. They should be meaningful,

for a neighborhood sidewalk.

For example, a Gigantic Number Line stimulated counting and measurement talk by presenting opportunities to measure the length of items in the environment and play games like Simon says. Sidewalk Math encouraged children to hop, jump and skip to learn more about counting and patterns.

MathTalk interviewed and observed community members using the site and documented how the activities supported math conversations and learning. Based on the project’s successes in encouraging families to find math in everyday places, MathTalk has since expanded into libraries, health clinics and other spaces.

Judson gets overrun by goats Students at Judson got some hands on experience with feeding goats, and it looks like they had fun!

J.L. Everhart students learn in new, imaginative ways Mrs. Lopez, an amazing 2nd grade teacher at J.L. Everhart, has imaginative ways for her students to visualize the Learner Profile Attributes for themselves.

These learning engagements help the students identify where they have the most understanding. Giving them even more agency in their learning, this also allows them to increase their understanding of the attributes they still need to nurture! Great work, Mrs. Lopez’s class!

Foster students learn about soaring to success “We delight in the beauty of butterfly, but rarely admit the changes it has gone through to achieve that beauty.” — Maya Angelou During he first days of school, Mrs. Raibon’s art class talked about the importance of having a growth mindset and what that meant for us and the butterfly. They then created a symmetrically balanced butterfly using watercolor techniques, colored pencils and markers to finish their mixed media creations.

The butterflies represent the ability to grow and change through this year, to soar to new levels of success despite challenges.

OBITUARIES Longview ISD offers our most sincere condolences to our extended Lobo family Randy Wyatt Randy Wyatt entered the arms of his Heavenly Father on August 26, 2021 at the age of 62. Though saddened by his departure, his family finds joy in the fullness of the life he led and his unwavering devotion to his Lord and savior, Jesus Christ.

Larry Randall Wyatt was WYATT born in Killeen, Texas on December 10, 1958. His father led him to Christ at the age of 9, and Randy spent the rest of his life walking in his calling as an anointed musician, worship leader, and song-writer. He graduated with the Longview High School class of 1977 and recorded with The Mobberly Sensations. He later went on to attend Oral Roberts University, where he was a member of the chapel praise team.

Randy’s musical talents opened doors to many opportunities that impacted countless lives and showcased his love for the Lord. He spent a decade traveling with The Continentals, performing in Africa, Germany, Australia, Israel, and numerous other destinations around the world. He also ministered at home, singing and playing guitar for many church worship teams throughout his lifetime

He married the love of his life on May 17, 1997 and together, they shared two beautiful children. Later moving to Austin, Randy spent 10 years there raising his family and leading worship with several local churches. He also performed and ministered with The Fred Thomas Band which he dearly loved He eventually returned to Longview, where Randy embraced his new role of “Papa” to his granddaughters.

Being their Papa was one of his greatest joys.

His favorite pastimes included spending time with beloved family, watching movies, fishing, collecting watches, and cheering on the Dallas Cowboys and Texas A&M football.

Randy is survived by his wife, Lesa Wyatt; daughter, Lauren Bjork; son, Luke Wyatt; granddaughters, Zoey Bjork and Willow Oshodi; parents, Larry and Betty Wyatt; sister, Lisa Westbrook; brothers, Lance, Kevin, and Kyle Wyatt; and many nieces and nephews. Also his mother-in-law Ginger (Gigi) Megason with whom he shared a very special relationship.

A private graveside service was held for immediate family at Rosewood Cemetery on Saturday, September 4, 2021, and a public celebration of life will be held on September 25 at 2:30 at Mobberly Baptist Church. Flowers will be received at Rader Funeral Home. In lieu of flowers, family support donations can be made to Lesa Wyatt in care of Pathway Church in Longview.

Gov. Abott signs virtual learning law

By Emily Donaldson

The Dallas Morning News More Texas students will have access to virtual learning after Gov. Greg Abbott signed a bill that sends state money to school districts with online programs.

The bill goes into effect immediately, according to the Texas Legislature Online system, and some districts are once again scrambling to expand offerings. Many families want more virtual options for their children as the pandemic continues.

The uncertainty of funding meant districts that initially planned to offer the remote option this year had to scrap plans this summer. But then as cases surged amid the more contagious delta variant, administrators once again rushed to pivot more classes to online, particularly for kids too young to receive the vaccine.

Schools are largely funded based on student attendance.

Prior to the pandemic, only a handful of full-time virtual schools received state funding, meaning few school districts could afford to offer such classes. The Texas Education Agency used disaster powers

to extend funding to most districts last year, but that authority ended, TEA officials have said, leaving school systems without many options.

Some school districts already announced plans to offer virtual learning for the rest of the school year. Plano ISD, for example, informed families that they could enroll students in kindergarten through six grade in a year-long virtual academy if they met certain provisions and the legislation was indeed finalized.

The new law permits districts and charters that received a C rating or higher in the most recent round of state academic accountability grades to offer remote class-

es to students living in the district. Enrollment would be capped at 10% of a school system’s enrollment during 2021-22.

However, schools won’t get funding for all students, such as for those who were in virtual classes for the majority of last school year and failed their STAAR exams; those who missed 10% or more of class; or those who earned lower than a C grade in their foundation classes last year.

Lawmakers said this provision was inserted to ensure students who have already shown that virtual doesn’t work for them are not put back into the same instruction.

Angelia D. Carr

Angelia Denise Carr was born on September 16, 1972 to the parentage of Brenda Carr and Lucilious Shaw.

She attended Longview High School and later took classes in Cosmetology.

CARR She accomplished her goal of becoming a licensed beautician. She worked various jobs through the years including being a hair stylist, custodial work and home health care.

Angelia was always the life of the party. She enjoyed cooking, dancing, babysitting and spending quality time with her family. Multiple people considered her a mother. She would take care of others like they were her own.

Angelia was always giving.

She was a proud organ donor and saved two lives due to this selfless act of kindness. She was beautiful inside and out and will be dearly missed.

She was preceded in death by her father Lucilious Shaw and her sister Vernitta Carr.

She leaves to cherish her memory: her mother, Brenda Carr; children: Dunruntre Hodge and Joshua Johnson; three grandchildren: A’Marianna, Legennd and Aria Johnson; a brother: Lucilious Carr; a nephew: Ashton Taylor; three god-daughters: Markeita Brantley, Kasha Stephenson and Crystal; including some special friends: Opal, Michelle and Sharon; and a host of relatives and friends.
