Celebration of Learning
This is a copy of the letter and planner message sent home last week
A “Celebration of Learning” for students
can take many forms. This year, students have collected work in their
binder to share with parents. In
addition, students are encouraged to share with parents some of the technology platforms
that we have used.
The format will be open house style. No reservations/appointments are
required. The classroom will be open on
Wednesday, May 8th from 1:45pm – 5:30pm and on Thursday, May 9th,
from 1:45pm-3:30pm. Families are welcome
to come at their most convenient time; please be prepared to spend 10-15
minutes with your child.
The focus of a “Celebration of Learning”
or “Student-Led Conference” is for the students to share
information with their families. By grade 4 & 5 students are very
good at doing this. Each student chooses
things to share with their family.
I know that families have busy
schedules. If you are unable to come to
the “Celebration of Learning” at the school, a “take-out” version is
available. For families who were unable
to come on Wednesday or Thursday, students will take-home their binder on
Friday May 10th, share it with families and return it to school on Monday May
13th. The most important part is
providing time for families to engage in conversations about some of the
learning at school.
If you have any questions or concerns
about your child’s learning, a parent-teacher interview may be arranged for a
different time. Simply send an email and
I will schedule a meeting.
Thank you,
Mrs. Tara Elie
