Dear colleagues,
Once again, we would like to congratulate you all for making the start of the year so smooth and successful. We believe that a good weekend rest was in place after the busy week. This week we are getting ready for our Back-To-School-Night. This is such a great opportunity to meet all the parents and share some of the CA values, beliefs, and practices for designing learning. Hence, the Wednesday learning time is kept open for your preparation either for the presentation or your future planning. Please, remember to move your presentation to the BTSN folder.
As soon as the BTSN is over, we are enjoying our first extended learning session. I am sure those students who have experienced EL before, will be excited to learn more about this week’s plans.
We finish the week with Gr 1 - 5 listening conferences. Please note that there are no specialist lessons during the first lesson on that Friday morning.
Finally, the first-semester duty list is open. Due to fewer faculty members, we have slightly more duties per teacher this year. Please, make a comment if you are accidentally placed in two duties on the same day. You can find the link below.
Let’s follow the first week’s example with the second one and have fun with both the students and parents!
Have a wonderful week!
Riana, Trevor, and Heikki
