About My Classmate...

Well, we're starting to get back in the swing of things! Today I began conducting data conversations on a one-on-one basis with your children regarding their Acuity Data for Social Studies. Overall, your students did a great job for their first time taking the social studies acuity. When we are conducting these data conversations, I am discussing with your child what their life goals/plans are and I am encouraging them to think about the kind of education and/or training that will be necessary to help them achieve their goals. We are also discussing their recent scores on Acuity Predictive B and we worked together to set realistic goals for your child on an individual basis. Finally, we decided on three goals that your child and I can work on in social studies to help them achieve their new acuity score goal and their other life goals as well. We will continue these conversations for the remainder of the week. If you would like for me to sit down with you individually to discuss your child's acuity data, I would be more than happy to do so. Please e-mail me at keshia.seitz@evsc.k12.in.us. or call the School and leave a message for me so that we can set up a time to meet!

While I was conducting individual data conversations, the rest of the class began working on a connecting activity called "About My Classmate..." For this activity, students were asked to interview a classmate that they didn't know very much about. Then, the students were instructed to record their classmate's answers to the interview questions in a word document format. After gathering responses to all of the questions, the students were provided with a link to the class Google Document Presentation. Each student used the information that they gathered to create a power-point slide about their classmate. The students really had fun working on this presentation and will continue to work on it for the remainder of the week. These assignments are due Friday.
