First Reading Group of the Year!

Dear teachers and teaching assistants,

Back by popular demand! Reading Group is meeting September 26 (Thursday) Day 8 at lunch, 1:15 – 1:55, in Lance’s MS counseling office (D248). Come join a discussion around another intriguing article in education research.

This one’s sure to be a doozy: The Scientific Status of Learning Styles Theories (2015)

How to participate:

1. Read the article
2. Show up (bring your lunch)
3. Discuss

Hope to see you then!

Is your ManageBac up to date?

Remember you need one Service as Action experience and one Volunteering experience this semester. So what have you done so far? Have your filled out your MB?

 

We’ve made things simpler for you in grades 6-9:

In the description box, simply tell us what you DID for the experience and include your SMART goal.

In reflection, simply tell us what you LEARNED and attach a photo (with you in it). This is where you have the chance to explain how you achieved your Learning Outcome and SMART goal.

 

Need help? You can always ask your awesome Advisory Teacher  or stop by to see me.

 

HWC- Did you hear about the restaurant on the moon?

Great food, no atmosphere.

Do you know where there is a fantastic atmosphere? Homework Club! Homework Club is open to all grade 6-12 students every Monday and Wednesday from 3:15-4:15 in the LSS area. Come work on projects, study, get assignments double-checked, and ask questions if you have them.

See you there!
