Weekly Update, Tuesday, 19 September 2017

Dear colleagues,
Welcome to a beautiful Tuesday after the somewhat stormy long weekend. Luckily, the typhoon was quite a bit milder version of what was advertised.
Congratulations for completing the busy past week. We were able to take photos, MAPs test the grade 3 - 5 students, launch the planning of our professional learning goals and still keep the routines up and running in the classrooms. Thank you to Ellen and Jeff for sharing their learning on Bridges. Please, find the Math Presentation by following the link.


This week’s highlights include ES assembly on Thursday 21 September at 11:00 am in the theater, cognitive coaching workshop for a group of teachers and leaders at CA, and Nita Copley’s Math workshop starting on Sunday 24 September. If your students would like to (and have practiced already) present something in the assembly on Thursday, please advise them to meet Heikki in front of the theater today at 12:30.

Enjoy the short week!
