March Is Women History Month
Jane Addams
Jane Addams was born on September 6, 1860, in the
small town of Cedarville, Illinois, one of eight children. Her
mother died when she was only three years old, which may
have caused her desire to become a doctor when she was a
child. But she was unable to become a doctor and fulfill her
dream because she often had back pains and was ill and
sickly most of the time.
In 1877, Jane attended the Rockville Female Seminary
where she learned to write and speak with authority, traits
that would come in handy during her later years. When she
graduated from the seminary in 1881, she found herself ill
and depressed, and became more so after her father died that
same year when she was only 21.
With her father dead, Jane and the rest of her family
moved to Philadelphia where she attended the Women's
Medical College, once more trying to live her childhood
dream. Yet, she became ill once again, and had even more of
an emotional setback when her brother, Weber, had a mental
breakdown.
Jane never graduated. Instead she took a trip with her
stepmother to Europe from 1883 to 1885 and lived in
Baltimore from 1886 to 1887. But it wasn't until 1887, when she traveled to Europe with a group of friends,
that her life began to take direction.
When Jane traveled to London, England, Addams found herself amazed at the huge amount of poverty
that England's industrialization had caused. She also saw a settlement house called Toynbee Hall, used in
order to teach workmen, from which sprouted her interest in social reform.
When Jane returned to the United States, she traveled to Chicago and turned an old mansion there into a
settlement house called Hull House which she used in order to care for children, give medical care, and try to
clean up the disease-causing waste on the city streets. While in Chicago, she also managed to enlighten and
educate the poor and spoke often at church groups and women's clubs and also talked to college students.
In 1898,Jane began to become known throughout the nation for her speeches and was even
recommended to meet with President Woodrow Wilson by a close friend of his, Charles R. Crane, who had
heard her speak. She even tried to stop World War I from coming, even though it was inevitable. She also
encouraged meditation and became an officer of the Progressive party and the Women's International League
for Peace and Freedom, of which she became president in 1915. She was even offered a job by the Red
Cross, but she refused because it was run by the military and hence, supported war.

In 1931, Jane received the Nobel Prize for all she had done, including her help with the worldwide
disarmament after World War I, Hull House, and many other accomplishments. She died on May 21, 1935,
having written many books on prostitution, women's rights, juvenile delinquency, and militarism, and trying
to achieve her dream of making every child happy.
Susan B. Anthony
"Women must not depend upon the protection of a man, but
must be taught to protect herself."
-Susan B. Anthony
Susan Brownell Anthony was born on February 15, 1820,
in the small town of Adams, Massachusetts, the second of
eight children. In 1827 her family moved to Battenville, New
York, and moved once more in 1845 to Rochester, New
York, where they remained. Right away, Anthony was smart
and demonstrated leadership, attending boarding schools and
teaching when she was 15 till she was 30. In 1849, she
became the president of the Rochester Branch of the
Daughters of Temperance, a group dedicated to prohibiting
alcohol. This was the first of many societies and associations
that she was part of in her lifetime.
In 1853, Anthony created the Women's State Temperance
Society. She was also part of the American Anti-Slavery
Society from 1856 until 1861, formed the Women's Loyal
League in 1863 for slave emancipation, and also founded the
National Woman's Suffrage Association with her colleage, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, in 1869. Anthony and
Stanton published a newspaper called "The Revolution," sending out the word for women's rights, saying
"Men their rights and nothing more, women their rights and nothing less." Also in 1870, she founded and
became president of the Workingwomen's Central Association.
In 1878, Anthony wrote the Susan B. Anthony amendment, which on August 18, 1920, after her death,
turned into the 19th Amendment, giving women the right to vote. She also founded the International Council
of Women, made up of 48 countries, in 1888, the National Woman's Suffrage Association in 1890 (of which
she was president until 1900), and the International Woman Suffrage Council in 1904. She was also able to
make the University of Rochester accept women, starting in 1900.
Anthony died on March 13, 1906, in her home on Madison Street in Rochester, New York, from
pneumonia and heart failure, having led the only non-violent revolution that has occurred in the United
States, fighting for women's rights. Her last public words, "Failure is impossible," turned into the suffrage
movement's chant. On July 2, 1979, the Susan B. Anthony dollar coin was created in her honor.

there is a snap shot of the different subcommittee duties for you to review.
If you can devote your time to serving on this committee we will greatly appreciate it.

Purpose of the Practicum
The practicum for early elementary education covers two semesters, with placement each semester in a different school.
The practice are referred to as A and B, each two-credits. Planned observations and tasks are identified for the twosemester sequence. Students spend a minimum of 40 hours in a designated school. Practicum a students are placed in a
K-2 classroom and their time should be spent during language arts. Practicum B students have two placements, one K-2
classroom and one 3-5 classroom, and their time should be spent during math, science, and social studies
The in-school experience is an opportunity to observe how learning experiences are developed and structured and to
examine how teachers make decisions in elementary school classrooms. The practicum is intended to be a time for
observation and interaction. While a few tasks require teaching formal lessons, the practicum is not intended to provide
extensive instructional experience. To provide focus to the experience, tasks for the practicum students in early
elementary education have been identified.

Timeframe of the Practicum
Each practicum student will spend a minimum of four hours a week for ten+ weeks in their assigned school. Days and
times will vary for each student because of individual class schedules. Moreover, days and times must be agreed upon
by the cooperating teacher and the student. Students will begin and end their practicum experience according to
semester guidelines established by the university instructors.
Professional Roles
•
•
Role of the Cooperating Teacher: The preparation of new teachers is an important task that could not be
done adequately without the professional and unselfish assistance of effective teachers willing to share their
classroom. Cooperating teachers have two major responsibilities during the practicum experience. First, and
foremost, they should provide opportunities for practicum students to work with students in a variety of
capacities. Students are to work closely with the teacher, and should never assume responsibility for the entire
class alone. Second, teachers need to provide opportunities for students to complete assigned tasks and verify
completion of hours by signing the timesheet. Teachers are encouraged to give feedback to students, but are
not asked to sign grades. An evaluation will be completed at the end of the practicum experience to provide
more extensive feedback to the students.
Role of the Student: During the practicum experience, the student is a learner. The student is to eagerly seek
to learn about the policies and procedures of the school as well as the dynamics of teaching and learning that
occurs in the classroom. The practicum students are provided the opportunity to observe and learn in a
classroom environment and should act responsibly at all times. Informal participation is encouraged when
directed by the cooperating teacher. Students should complete practicum tasks after discussion with
cooperating teacher and should listen to feedback to improve their teaching.
Professional Expectations of the Student
Practicum students represent VCU and the School of Education. They are guests in the school and classrooms. What
students do while in the public schools reflects on the institution and influences the thinking of professionals regarding
the quality of the teacher preparation program and the students. It is expected that each student will represent VCU well.
Students’ performance during their practicum will also become part of their “legacy” and how others view them as
potential applicants for a position in the school division. Consequently, students should pay close attention to such
things as punctuality, reliability, appropriate dress, neatness, scholarship, and willingness to work with the cooperating
teacher. Essentially, students should demonstrate enthusiasm for relating to children and be committed to working with
teachers and performing designated tasks of the practicum.
Student Responsibilities
Students are expected to fulfill the following responsibilities during the semester:
• In-school assignment for minimum required time of 4 hours each week.
• Spend a minimum of ten weeks in assigned school during the semester.
• Complete all required tasks which may vary by instructor.
• Write an evaluation of the practicum experience.
• If extenuating circumstances occur, notify the school and cooperating teacher prior to absence(s) or
immediately thereafter.
• Arrangements must be made with cooperating teacher to make up absences.

Tornado Drill
March is Tornado Preparedness Month, On Tuesday, March 17, 2015, the Richmond Public
Schools’ Department of Safety and Security, the Virginia Department of Emergency Services and
the National Weather Service will cosponsor Tornado Preparedness Day. On that day they will
conduct a statewide tornado drill. The drill is designed to get schools prepared and knowledgeable
about how to protect students and staff if a tornado warning is issued. Participation in this drill is
expected from all staff. The signal will be Code Orange (Report to shelter in place) via intercom.
Teachers must take their roll book or attendance cards with them. The drill may last for 30 minutes
so you may want students to carry a book or two with them to
READ. Code Green will mean that you return to normal operations.
No one is to be on the second floor. No students are to be across from their classrooms because of
the glass beside the classroom doors. If there are questions, please be sure to ask them before the
drill. Students are to quietly sit Indian Style, facing the wall during the drill. Locations for shelter in
place are as follows:

USEFUL LOCKDOWN DRILL INFORMATION What is a lockdown? A school lockdown confines all staff and students to the classroom due to a perceived or real threat; isolation of staff and students inside the school limits exposure to risk to outside contaminants: people, exposures or situations. When should a school go into “lockdown” and who makes the decision? There are several reasons for a school to determine that a lockdown status is most protective of its staff and students. There may be an unwelcomed person or persons on the campus grounds; local law enforcement has notified administration of a situation (i.e., chemical accident) or person of concern in the vicinity; or a menacing animal has been seen on the grounds. In short, there is some sort of event occurring, or threatening to occur; limiting access to staff and students can mitigate that the school believes. For actual incidents requiring lockdowns, building principals can initiate lockdown status or by the prompting/guidance of local law enforcement. •
•
•
•
•
•

DIRECT all students from hallways into classroom. Notify appropriate staff of primary classroom/location if/as possible that student is safe. Do not exit classroom for ANY reason. Inform students that they are not allowed to use their cell phones for calls or for text messaging during a lockdown drill or situation. Hundreds of calls being made simultaneously will not only jam the system, but will result in parents arriving at the school, which only increases the danger to everyone. LOCK all exterior doors. If there is no lock on the door – move heaviest object in front if possible. CLOSE windows and blinds. STAY AWAY from all doors and windows, move students towards walls away from door. SHUT OFF LIGHTS. DO NOT OPEN exterior doors for any reason until an “all clear” is received. DO NOT USE the telephone system to request information. Follow building protocol to communicate room status. Page

BE QUIET! Wait for further instructions. CALM and reassure upset students. RESUME NORMAL OPERATIONS as soon as possible. Location Considerations Gymnasium: Students should be moved into the locker room, lock all doors and seek shelter in pre-­‐‑identified safe areas. Lunchroom: Students should be moved to the far side of the most open areas, turn tables on side if necessary. Outside: Students should stop, drop and remain still or huddle around playground equipment p.m.ent; if/as possible, depending upon situation, attempt to move into building. Bathrooms: Students/staff should move into a stall, lock the staff door and crouch on the toilet so feet, hands and head are hidden from view Hallway: Students should move into closest classroom immediately Library: Students should seek shelter under tables, or in aisles. Lock the door, turn out the lights. What to Tell Students As appropriate, encourage staff to review the importance of emergency drills with students, as well as their role during drills. Provide students with specific instructions about each drill and include the drill objectives. Allow student feedback concerning lockdown drills. Provide drill information to all new students. Plan accordingly for students with disabilities. What to Tell Parents Parents should be informed of the requirement for all drills to ensure safe practices during emergencies in the school building. Schools need to inform parents, either before or after a lockdown drill; if after, commend student behavior and add any suggestions or changes for Linwood Holton Elementary School
