The Early Childhood Department has been having some holiday fun. Each December day is a different dress up theme day. The festivities started with Grinch Day, Logo Day, Winterfest Day, Crazy Sock Day, Candy Cane Day, Merry & Bright Day and Ugly Sweater Day.
Last week, the high school ISD MOCI classroom had a special guest teacher.....Laurie Rice, recently retired math teacher from Jonesville and parent, came in to teach a hands on lesson about volume. She taught us about the volume of different sized cylinders and connected the lesson with Devil's Tower, a national monument in Wyoming. It was fun! Everyone learned and enjoyed it.

On October 6, Reading Junior High Students from Lesleigh Clark’s Ranger Awareness class participated in an informational visit with Amy Bayes, TCVI with HCISD. This Reading Schools class is designed to inform students about different types of disabilities including what they are, what could be the cause, educational or outside support, and tools used with individuals who have a disability. The goal of the course is to make the students more aware and more accepting of those who are different from them. This session included the role of a TCVI and a chance to check out some adapted materials useful for people with visual impairments. The students were given the opportunity to try on simulators to have a better understanding of some common visual conditions, feel braille materials, learn about adaptations and get questions answered. #hillsdaleisd #hillsdalecountyisd #michiganisds
