Good morning,
Please remember that as there is no Assembly or Advisory, today’s MYP/DP exam schedule is as follows:
Block 1: 8:10-9:30
Block 2: 9:30-10:40
For students who have signed up for Mindfulness during Block 2, they will return to their Block 2 lesson to continue with quiet study at 10:10.
The rest of the day remains the same.

Good morning, Students,
During these exam days, please be mindful of MYP students who wish to have quiet study in the library. During morning break and first half of lunch, the library is a quiet location for independent study and reading only.
For students wishing to do some studying after school, the cafeteria is available from 3:15 to 4:15 for quiet group study. You should be seated near the window into the hallway.
Be balanced,
Mrs Tyoschin
You call it playing, we call it doing experiments from the German Physics Society
http://www.physik-im-advent.de
A Physics Advent calendar in which every day you will discover a new physics experiment and exciting tasks with the video clip.
With “PiA – Physics in advent”, we created a special and unique kind of advent calendar: a physical advent calendar. We introduce young scientists, and everyone who has fun with it, to 24 simple and yet ingenious experiments and physics puzzles. They will arouse interest in doing experiments for yourself and ignite excitement within any observer.
From 1st to 24th December 2015, we present a little experiment as video clip every day. You can do the experiment yourself at home and answer the question on our web page throughout the day before seeing the solution video the next day.
Sign up as a class, individuals or adults. The experiments are designed from grades 5-10.
Merry Christmas.
Thanks to all of you who took part in the NIS Eco-Team’s initiative to send a video to the UN Foundation’s Earth to Paris efforts.

Dear Students,
Please check the activities that you have signed up for after lunch TODAY. They will be posted in your Humanities or TOK class as well as on the WINDOW outside the MYP LGR.
If your name has been highlighted, it means that you need to re-choose your activity because the activity is FULL. You must see me or send me an email to do this.
Thank you,
