 * 9/5/13**


 * COALITION AGAINST BORING STAFF MEETINGS (CABSM)**
 * Please #|continue to be patient.**
 * I. MAS GradeBook**
 * Eligibility**
 * Get all grades in on Thursday. Must be in by Thursday end of day. Peggie will run on Friday morning/noon. After next Thursday they will become ineligible if still on the report. Remember teachers you must send your eligibility to us. //__Don't forget to save after you calculate. Don't forget to place a check mark by the student name and by the word ineligible.__//**
 * Teachers must enter grades in GradeBook. This is required.**
 * Other:**
 * **Students will always show up in Permanent Tab if given assignments**
 * **Teachers must remove the assignments in GradeBook in order for #|enrollment to be corrected.**
 * **I can remove grades in ISIS, but cannot remove assignments in GB unless I am logged in as you.**
 * **If you have to move a student from one section to another, for example, 7th (1) to 7th (2) if both sections are identical, you can copy both assignments and scores to the other section by going into LP assignments. Assignments/Scores. Copy Scores.**
 * **Or you can enter them manually.**
 * After a student is dropped:**
 * **Student will always appear in Perm Tab and Classic View until the end of the 9 weeks.**
 * **After the drop date, assignments should not attach to the student.**

Teachers please note change for IEP students. I will get out a memo or come visit with each of you, Tuesday, October 8th. IEP students: To avoid having to go in and set up a section for every teacher for every hour for those students who are on IEP's let's try this:
 * Go into Gradebook
 * Add Assignment Type
 * Add Assignment
 * Click over until your students appear. Move those IEP students from the left to the right that you want to assign to this assignment/assignment type. This will give them the Assignment Type and Assignment that you are creating specifically for them.


 * Please remember:**
 * All students must have 2 daily grades per week.**
 * All students must have** 20 **grades per nine weeks**
 * Nine weeks tests are 25% of the grade.**

 * PMI **- A brain storming model

Plus, minus, and interesting

@http://www.edutopia.org/blog/three-steps-to-critical-thinking-todd-finley?utm_source=twitter&utm_medium=post&utm_campaign=blog-ciritcal-thinking-3-steps-finley

Step 1 For two minutes in the plus column, write (with laser-beam focus) about all of the possible positive things regarding a subject or about taking an action.

Step 2 For two minutes in the minus column, write (with the focus of a begging Labrador) about all the possible negative things related to a subject, or about the negative effects of taking an action.

Step 3 For two minutes in the interesting column, write (with the focus of a pre-tenure NYU professor) about all the interesting things related to the subject, or implications and possible outcomes of taking an action, whether positive, negative or uncertain.
