Our 5th graders in Mr. Robert's math class are learning how to use Plickers. Plickers are an quick interactive tool that will help our teachers get student feedback using QR cards. The students determine their response and then hold the card according to that answer. The teacher uses their cell phone to scan all of the cards and the responses are recorded. The students thought the activity was "awesome" and they asked to do it more often.

Every month at MIS we recognize one student from each homeroom for being a leader and setting a great example for classmates. The award is called the BIG DEAL AWARD. I am thrilled to present our November Big Deal Award recipients.

Today is National Special Education Day! We honor and thank all of our Special Education teachers and staff who guide, support and provide necessary services to our students. We celebrate today as December 2 is the anniversary of the nation’s first federal special education law, the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA).
