Weekly Updates, Monday, 2 October, 2023


 

Dear Colleagues,

October is here, and so is Jen Bulson, helping us gain clarity and confidence in teaching mathematics with Bridges. The Sunday workshop gave us a lot to think about and brought the fantastic Bridges program alive and accessible to the participants. The weekend offered a lot of rich learning experiences through the TIES (Toddle International Educator Summit) keynotes and workshops. We hope you can watch many of those presentations in the future, as they are all recorded and available for the next three months. The whole week will be full of excitement, learning with Jen, posing for photos, and the earth-shattering Falcon Cup to finish the week.


We will meet
Tuesday morning for the October faculty briefing in the ELAC MPR. We will learn more about the Falcon Cup, Sports Day, and other upcoming events.


Let’s have a great week!


Erin, Trevor, and Heikki.
