Ms. Seig's students at Aurora Elementary School picked up scissors this week for a different kind of spelling practice — snipping out the missing vowel and gluing it into place to finish each word.

It's a small activity doing a lot of work: building letter sounds, spelling, and the fine motor skills kids need for everything from handwriting to tying their shoes.

Rounding, place value, and a lot of number sense — that's what's on the table this week in Mrs. McClure's fourth-grade class at Dillsboro Elementary School.

It's practical math: the kind that helps a kid glance at an answer and know right away whether it makes sense.

South Dearborn Middle School's Student Government and Aurora Elementary School's Student Leadership Team are teaming up for a "Spare Change Challenge" benefiting Dolly Parton's Imagination Library of Dearborn County!

From Monday, September 14th through Friday, September 18th, students at both schools will compete — grade vs. grade at SDMS, class vs. class at AES — to raise the most spare change, with a prize for the top group at each school.

On Friday, September 25th, students and staff at both schools are asked to wear pink for Dolly. That afternoon, SDMS Student Government will visit AES to read with PreK–5th graders and present the funds raised to the Imagination Library.

Bring your change, wear your pink, and help put books in the hands of Dearborn County's youngest readers! 📖

What does marketing class look like when the client is real? Ask Mr. Kirchgassner's dual-credit students at South Dearborn High School, who are designing flyers for the athletic department and preparing to pitch their work to administration.

They're also launching a pen pal program with nursing home residents, pairing marketing skills with communication and community service.

These projects for real clients offer memorable experiences that will stick with students!

Catch. Stick. Badge. Mrs. Gainor's second-graders at Aurora Elementary School spent the week sorting words like these by sound, working through the "tch," "ck," and "dge" spelling patterns.

It's part of a bigger push on syllables, and it's building the kind of pattern sense that makes reading and writing easier down the road.

What does it take to become a doctor? Ms. Gabbard's eighth-graders at South Dearborn Middle School are finding out in PLTW Medical Detective — measuring vital signs, collecting bacterial samples, testing antibiotics, and diagnosing patients, switching roles between doctor, nurse, and patient.

It's building real clinical thinking and teamwork, and opening their eyes to just how many different careers exist in healthcare.
