Letterland
Parade
Is This
FRIDAY!
Please send your child to
school dressed in their Letterland costume. If it is a costume that’s not
easily worn on the way to school, just send it in a bag and we’ll be glad to
help them get dressed in the morning. Don’t forget to send in an
object for your child carry in the parade that begins with the Letterlander’s
“special sound”!
Our goal is to start the
parade right after the news. News usually begins around 8:20-8:25
and so we should be parading down the hallway by 8:40. I hope you will be
able to join us in the hallways for the parade and then immediately following
the parade, we’ll gather in the gym for a quick assembly. The assembly
is a chance for each “Letterlander” to gather on the stage and show off their
costume and their object!
We look forward to seeing
you on Friday!!!
IB
Learner Profiles
The children and I have
been reading literature to help us learn our IB Learner Profiles. As a
response to the readings, the children drew pictures and gave me a quote about
how they exhibited that particular learner profile. It has been a
wonderful tool to build the vocabulary and the understanding about each
profile. We often take the opportunities to recognize circumstances in
which we can practice specific profiles such as being principled or
open-minded.
Here is a
list of our IB Learner Profiles
Principled
Knowledgeable
Open-Minded
Reflective
Inquirer
Caring
Thinker
Risk-Taker
Communicator
Balanced
1st Quarter
Parent-Teacher Conferences
I am
scheduling parent-teacher conferences beginning next week. Look for the
yellow conference sign up sheet coming home in OTIS today.
I look
forward to meeting with all of you!
