Good evening Panda friends! Hope you enjoyed your weekend! Here are some highlights of last week: 1. On Monday, we celebrated the Grandparents Day in class! Thank you, grandparents, for coming and spending time with us! 2. We started our first IB unit: Homes and Journey through "See/Think/Wonder" activity! Students asked a lot of interesting questions they want to know about homes and journeys! And we continued the IB learning by making a school day timeline: 3. In Science this week, we observed the pattern of a spinning top could make by using a very cool tool. And then we creatively made our own spinning top and the designs: 4. In 2nd grade Mandarin center, we tried to use paint brush to write characters! 5. We also celebrated one of the traditional Chinese festivals-Mid Autumn Festival (中秋节) through so many fun activities: We made play dough mooncakes, made rabbit brown bags, listened to Mid Autumn Festival story, and we are so honored to have Wang Laoshi from CSU to tell stories about the festival! 6. This week we have a big shout-out to Kieran for being an inquirer! Reminders for next week:
1. No school on Monday (9/16): Teachers' PD 2. PBIS party on Friday (2:15-3:00pm). 3. The school provides healthy snacks every Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. We are requesting that you do NOT bring in any other snack on Tuesdays - Thursdays. Please let me know if your child is unable to eat anything on this menu. If this case, bringing in a special snack just for that day would be acceptable. Feel free to pack snacks on Monday/Friday. 4. Math learning schedule for the upcoming week: 2nd grade: Module 2 Lesson 10 (Tuesday), End of Module Assessment (Wednesday), Module 3 Lesson 1 (Thursday), and Lesson 2 (Friday) 3rd grade: Module 1 Lesson 18 (Tuesday), Lesson 19 (Wednesday), Lesson 20 (Thursday), and Lesson 21 (Friday) If the student is out of school for any reason, please follow the schedule and finished Problem Set and Homework at home so that when student comes back, he/she can catch up. A great resource for you if you need help with any math lesson!!
