Tankyuu Brainstorming 2018 |
Dear colleagues,
Welcome to a full week for a change! Thank you again to Celia for the successful author/illustrator visit last week.
Mark Crilley was a fantastic experience for students, parents, and teachers. Although, this week is a full 5 days of
school it is far from following a normal schedule. Monday to Wednesday we are taking school photos. Also, on
those days we will continue our learning of mathematical practice that will support the development of a
mathematical mindset of growth with the wonderful Pia Hansen. Please note that the Wednesday PD with Pia is
not mandatory for PreK/KA, PE, Music, Visual Arts, Japanese, Counseling and library teachers.

On Friday, the annual Elementary School futsal tournament, the Falcon Cup 2018, will bring a number of teams
to join a soccer extravaganza at CA. Please, take the time to see and cheer for the teams.

Finally, as a reminder to all of us, we have 4 weeks to go before the first reporting to parents. In your team
meetings, it is time to start talking about how and what will be shared with parents about student progress
during the first quarter of school.
