We Are Knowledgeable!

It's that time of the year, when we get to show ALL we've learned and celebrate our commitment to coming to school and putting forth effort each day. Although, testing is stressful on everyone...students, staff, and parents. It is important that students understand how to test and why we need to pause in our learning and take this time to "check-in" on how we are progressing as learners, teachers, and a school. We want our students to be able to compete with students all over the world, and to make sure we are on-track, we have to be able to show what we know. I was amazed to see some of my former students in 6th grade on their testing day, walking in with such confidence. Reflecting on how far they've come. It's not "cool" anymore for me to acknowledge this in front of them or their peers...but my heart was so full of joy.

Confidence is a much better predictor of students' achievement than any other non-cognitive measure. It acts in a way that overcomes everything!

Many PYP classrooms took time to wish students in grades 3-8, good luck! We enjoyed "Prep" Rallies in all testing grades, Learner Profile t-shirts that students had friends and staff members sign with positive messages, teachers wrote notes to students, parents donated snacks, and students took a pledge to have a great attitude and to put forth their best effort. As an incentive to those who keep their pledge, dress down tickets can be earned and each grade level chose an end of the year fun day/dance for May.

Good luck to all of our students as you show just how KNOWLEDGEABLE you are!
​We all believe in you!

Thank you to our grade 2 "Tech Team." Miss Chambers' students are so knowledgeable about computers. Each morning they set up laptops for the testing grades. There were able to set up 150 laptops in 15 minutes!

They earned Glow Sticks from 7th and 8th grade for their action!

Grade 2 learning about Force and Motion

Students used marshmallow shooters to determine how much force is needed for a mini marshmallow compared to a big marshmallow.

Students learned that mass makes a difference.
