OCTOBER!
We are now one week into October and down to just one week left in the first grading period. Please be sure and keep your grades updated as we plan to take down powerschool next week in preparation for parent-teacher conferences. I would also like for you all to consider incentives for participation at conferences again this year. To celebrate the end of what I think has been a successful 9 weeks I would like for all of you to wear your UCpride t-shirts with jeans next Friday.
As we turn the corner into the new grading period remember to have your students write well, and write often. This is a point of emphasis and an area to improve on. If you need help coming up with good questions for short writing prompts you can refer to the DOK poster at the bottom of the newsletter.
Looks like another warm weekend in Indiana! Enjoy!

October 17 & 18
Our eLearning days are fast approaching. Please keep in mind that in order to take attendance on each eLearning day, you will need some type of digital response for each day. The simplest way to do this is to have 2 assignments; one for each day. Then if you have some type of digital response to show the students were "present" for each day's assignment (not necessarily that they completed it, but were at least in each assignment), that will count for attendance.
Important Dates
Oct. 10- PSAT for Grades 10, 11 (8:10-12:00)
Oct. 12- End of 1st 9 Weeks
Oct. 17&18- eLearning Days/Parent/Teacher Conferences (4:00-7:00)
