This week at UA, we will have an all staff professional development opportunity on the half day (Wednesday, September 21).  Please make sure that you sign up ASAP (if you have not done so); it was due Friday.  Your sign-up helps us plan appropriately for the number of sessions and the topics to offer.

Character Flashback...

Take a moment to view the video clip below from Lonnie Moore (character ed speaker this year).  This clip is from the presentation to parents, but it can certainly be applicable in our classrooms.

What are you?  How does this impact your reactions and interactions at school and in your classroom?

Character Lessons Through Digital Citizenship...

Students and staff certainly enjoyed Jerry Ackerman's visit to Union Academy.  We must understand that students today are dealing with many distractions (such as social media), and we are charged with engaging and entertaining them with exciting and challenging lessons.  How can we get students just involved in our lessons as they are with our guest speaker?
