Dear Parents,
I hope you are all having a lovely break! I am writing to touch base about the upcoming Presentations of Learning. Our first semester Presentations of Learning (POL’s) are going to be held Dec 9th-20th. For our first POL of the year the students will be expected to present on one subject area (Reading, Writing, or Math) and one Habit of Heart and Mind (Reflection, Empathy, Collaboration, Flexibility, Perseverance, or Exploration). They will be expected to give their presentation to a panel, and answer questions regarding the material that they presented. They will also be expected to attend one older student’s POL during that 2 week period. I will be working with the Core 4 and 5 teachers to facilitate this. We will be spending this upcoming week preparing for POL’s. On Mon/Tues (Dec 2nd and 3rd) your student will come home with the start of an outline of their presentation, but they will still need some guidance at home to finish the outline. Please send the outline back on Thurs/ Fri (Dec 5th and 6th) so that they can review it with me. We will work to finalize this outline and write a final draft in class on Thurs/ Fri. They will bring home a final draft which they will need to rehearse at home. They will need to spend at least 15 minutes a day practicing at home in order to feel comfortable presenting at their POL. I will be sending you more information regarding the scheduling of POL’s. Please feel free to send any questions you have my way. Thank you so much for supporting your child’s learning. Sincerely, Robin Comments are closed.
