September 27-Oct 1

Monday - Extended Gathering

  • Common ground

  • Announcements


Tuesday - Goal Setting, Grade Tracking

  • Gathering: Go Around - Why do we use standards based grades?

  • Review Skyward Setup: Today we are going to look at Skyward and track our grades for the first time. Before you open up your gradebook, we will review what Skyward looks like and how to use the dropdown arrows to inform how you can improve your grades. (pull up the doc and review with students, answering any questions the may have)

    • What do each of the numbers mean?

    • What should we do if we have a 2 or 1 on an assignment?

    • What should we do if we have a 0?

  • Grade Tracking: Login to Skyward (SASD Bookmarks) and go to your grade book. In your planner, highlight your grade for each class for this week. You may not have a grade for each class. If this is the case, leave it blank for now.

  • SMART Goal Setting: If time remains, use your grades to inform your SMART Goal for the week. If you have lower than a 3 in a class, use the dropdown menu to explore why and what you could revise/complete to improve that grade. If you have all 3s, you could make a SMART Goal around trying to reach advanced in a course OR a habit you are working on improving. You should have this bookmarked already, but here is the SMART Goal Setting Template if you need it.

  • Partner Check In: Share your goal with your assigned buddy! This is the person (besides me) who will hold you accountable this week for your goal. Please set up a time to check in with that person.

  • Ticket Out: Share your goal statement with the group! I will write each person's goal on the board so we can refer back to them throughout the week.
