Please sign up for MS Choir on Veracross!
During choir, students will get to choose and learn a variety of songs. You will practice voice techniques, learn about song structure, harmony and experience performing in front of live audiences. If you play a musical instrument let’s incorporate that into our performances, where possible.
MS/US Teachers please see attachment for the grade 10 and 11 students who will miss
blocks 1-4 on Wednesday, October 16 Day 8 because they will be taking the PSAT test.
Students will see you regarding missed work.
Students. Note the cancelled dates for SAT II in November and SAT I in March, 2020.
Happy Friday All,
A reminder that all teachers/teaching assistants not involved in the PYP session with Junlah or the TOK session with Rajesh will begin in the PAC at 8:00am Monday Morning, October 7th with a session designed to unearth a little more about inclusive practices at NIS, and ways we can support and scale these in the context of our (newly articulated) Learning Principles. Coffee/tea will be provided and the session will likely wrap-up just before the 10:00am Break (which will be in the Staff Lounge). Just bring yourself and your well-rested brains!
For more details about how the day looks after that, please see the bespoke schedules from Katie (MS/US) and Adam/Junlah (PS). The usual Break accoutriments (10:00-10:20am) and lunch for all Staff (12:30-1:30pm) will be provided.
Also, a quick note that Friday, October 18th is a “normal” Professional Learning Day for everyone, regardless of our status participating, presenting, or support Learning2. More details to come on how this will work with most rooms and learning spaces in use for the conference. #wehaveaplan
