Dear ECE Parents:
Happy 2017! We have had a wonderful first week back at school! Term 2 is a time when we observe tremendous changes in our students. They are now familiar with their classroom and know the procedures. They are comfortable with their friends and teachers. When KG students return from the winter break, everyone is happy to be back at school, excited to learn and “stretch their brain”. It is a joy to remember how we started out in September, and now to see the amazing growth and maturity that has taken place in a few short months. Ma’shallah! A reminder that next Thursday, January 12, is Parent Conferences for the Main Building. There will be no classes that day, including ECE. Children will stay home. In the coming weeks, KG students will be continuing their study of Qatar. This includes learning about the camel, the oryx and the qataf (national animal and flower of Qatar). We will also be moving along in our foundational academics of numeracy, literacy, science and global studies. Our ECE garden is providing daily opportunity for the children to monitor the growth of our many plants (tomatoes, eggplant, onions, pumpkins, mint, potatoes, sunflowers, etc.) as well as develop a deep understanding of the process of photosynthesis and the important part plants play in sustaining life on planet earth. We love our “outdoor classroom”! In Term 2, as always, we are looking forward to more learning and fun in ECE. On behalf of the entire ECE staff, we wish all our families health, happiness and peace in 2017. See you at school! Shukrun, Ms. Pasha Comments are closed.
