First Grade Fun in the Snow!
Dear Parents,
    This week we will have student-teachers on campus learning from us. These adults are beginning their journey into teaching and are eager to see a “real” classroom in action. We are happy to provide that opportunity for them. What better place to be than ASW?
   I hope to see you on Wednesday morning for our PYP Parent Meeting. A follow-up meeting will be held at the end of March when our new PYP Coordinator, Miranda Rose is here.  
   
Finally, a big thank you to the PTO for the Quiz Night on Saturday. It was a fun community event.


Have a wonderful week.
Jen

On Thursday, February 4 at 8:45 am, please join Simon May and Kris Sheehan, our ES Technology Coaches in The Learning Center (near security) for another Parent Technology Connection (PTC) session.  In this session, we will discuss privacy settings, tools to support a balanced use of technology, and other strategies to manage the online life of both you and your child. Please bring a device if you have one. We look forward to seeing you all!

If you wish to sign up for any of these please send an e-mail to Ms. Kusanovic: [email protected]

As always, we remind you to pack an extra snack when your child has an activity as there is no time to go to cafeteria before the start of activities. Also, please remember to pick your child up promptly at the end of the activity as sponsors might have other responsibilities afterwards and should not be expected to stay longer.

Students are expected to follow the school code "BE RESPONSIBLE, BE RESPECTFUL, BE SAFE" in the co-curricular program, too.

Community News

On Monday, Jan 25, 21 first year graduate students will be spending the day in our ES, primarily to observe how we teach literacy through the Balanced Literacy workshop model. Small groups of 3-4 will be spending blocks of time quietly observing and taking notes. The University of Warsaw has a well established relationship with ASW supporting the development of pedagogical teaching practices.
