JANUARY-ANDREA DEIGHTON
PARKVIEW KINDERGARTEN
Dr. Matthews had the pleasure to spend time at Parkview, teaching Mrs. Deighton's kindergarten class. As Mrs. Deighton was leaving to spend an afternoon at the mall, the class got to work on a Groundhog picture. After Dr. Matthews helped the students finish their pictures, it was time for a Groundhog math game.
Just before Mrs. Deighton left for the afternoon, a student started crying because she didn't want her teacher to leave. We are sure it had nothing to do with who the substitute teacher was...but with how much she loves her teacher!

FEBRUARY-CHRIS LANEY
MIDDLE SCHOOL

Dr. Matthews was able to takeover Mr. Laney's Applied Tech and Engineering classroom for an afternoon while Mr. Laney (usually hard at work on a Friday) was able to enjoy lunch and some March Madness.
Dr. Matthews started the day with roll call and by introducing himself to the students. An 8th grade student asked, "Dr. Matthews can you sign my high school diploma now?" Instead of pulling out his pen, he walked them across the hall so they could work on their egg drop project in the lab. It was great to see the students sharing ideas as they worked. Hopefully Dr. Matthew's was able to be a good mentor and some of their eggs will not break when they drop them.

MARCH - LISA ERICKSON
MEADOWS
What a great day for Mrs. Erickson to have a substitute teacher! Thanks to Dr. Matthews, she got to start her spring break 1/2 day early. She had some personal business to attend to, and planned to also visit a nail salon. So off she went...
Before the 6th graders got to work, a student had to ask his substitute teacher, "can we be dismissed early today"? Needless to say, Mrs. Erickson was the only one dismissed early.
The discussion for the day - year round schools pros/cons.
​
Dr. Matthews even worked through Mrs. Erickson's planning period as the students were in art with Ms. Garcia. Lots of creative energy!

APRIL - RACHELLE SHAFER
ORCHARD HILLS
WOW!
As Dr. Matthews walked into OH to allow Mrs. Shafer to leave for the afternoon, the office was filled with 20 kindergarten students. They had just returned from recess, and wouldn't you know ALL OF THEM, had gotten "hurt" outside playing. A lot of hurt knees and fingers. One student "broke their arm" and another said "I think I have lice". In the first 30 minutes of sitting behind Mrs. Shafer's desk, OH had turned into a MASH unit! Between ice bags, band aids, lice checks, and tying shoes, Dr. Matthews was getting a work out.
By 12:30, the OH phone started ringing, the lunch deliveries starting arriving, and wouldn't you know - more students "not feeling well"...
So on "Take Your Superintendent to Work Day", Mrs. Shafer got to enjoy the sunshine walking her dogs at Maybury State Park.

JUNE - CATHY CLOKE
ORCHARD HILLS
Third grade can be fun. Let's hope it was for Dr. Matthews as he was the substitute teacher at OH in Mrs. Cloke's class. Don't worry there were 3 teachers close by to offer any assistance!
In these pictures you will see Dr. Matthews getting last minute instruction to introduce multiplication of fractions to the class.
The students were very excited for him to come today as evidenced in one of their planners and the thank you he received before the day began.
Mrs. Cloke enjoy your afternoon at home riding your jet ski around the lake!
