Weekly Update, Monday 12 March, 2018

Dear colleagues,
Have a go with the Pineapple Chart on Monday before or after school. Check out the faculty lounge!
We have two full weeks to design the most exciting learning experiences for our students and colleagues before the
spring break. Temperatures are warming up again so life should look sunny and bright.
Congratulations to Satsuki and Grade 1 and 2 classes for yet another wonderful concert on Thursday past week.
Also, thank you to Student Support Team and all the contributors for running the Student of Concern meetings in order to gather
student data of our more vulnerable learners.
This week, we’ll continue with Tankyuu meetings. The depth and passion for professional learning are incredibly
strong in our community. On Wednesday, we have a tech workshop run by Liz Durkin. Please, bring your devices
and ideas to the meeting from 14:40 to 16:00. In preparation, please check out the following two articles in support
of the use of technology in supporting student learning: Early Childhood  & Upper Elementary. You can read both
or just the one pertinent to your current learning. Finally, like last week, we would like to designate time for
Cognitive Coaching as the last half an hour.  Lastly, this week will end with the ES Play extravaganza!
Let’s have a great week!
