Dear colleagues,
A short but a busy and hopefully exciting week ahead of us. Tuesday morning we will have an assembly with few performances, announcements, and the birthday videos. Ron Ritchhart’s Cultures of Thinking workshop registration for April 2017 will open this week. To reserve a spot, please take action right away. We are now ready to move forward with piloting a STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Math) lab in the ELAC D classroom. This idea is Ellen’s Tankyuu goal and has inspired a number of Elementary School teachers as well as Secondary School teachers to build a place for exploration, scientific inquiry and design and building for our students. This will complement the wonderful Maker Space that Kae-san has developed on the 3rd floor already. If you are interested in joining the innovation and think tank, please connect with Ellen.
Enjoy the week!
