EARCOS has a tri-annual journal that is published every fall, winter and spring. If you are a writer, have you considered writing for the EARCOS Tri-Annual Journal? Articles can be in the area of Curriculum, Green/Sustainable, Campus Development, Service Learning, Community Service and Press Releases. Please let me know if you are interested.
Many thanks,
Grace
Consider the following questions:
How will you link the content to the students’ previous knowledge?
How will you build background information? (Show a video or read a book aloud about your topic first.)
Decide what language and concepts need to be pre-taught.
How can you develop content area vocabulary? What visuals will you need?

A fun and exciting Friday afternoon ended with a very tight house race in the MYP Tech Challenge.
The Inter-House Table Tennis competitions will take place next week; Grades 9 – 12 on Tuesday lunchtime and Grades 6 – 8 on Wednesday lunchtime. Each House will need a team of two girls and two boys for each of these days.
