APA Developmental Rubric & Manual
Teachers & students,
I’ve attached the newest NIS APA Research and Style Manual (shared last year). It gives recommendations on how to format papers and reference lists and has examples of the most common references our students use.
The APA Developmental Rubric is taken from the Manual and was created for teacher use. It shows when skills are introduced and when students are expected to master them.

As always, I am available to help by either email or in the library!

Winter Concert
Reina and Sherry are looking for students to perform in this year’s Winter Concert. Please see their advertisement below.
ManageBac Monday Part 2
We have had a super busy weekend with over 80 students volunteering for the Football Tournament, the Student Council Haunted House & Octopus Games and finally the PTA Autumn Festival.
Thank you. With your help, these events can take place. Your commitment & perseverance (long hours, hot weather, crowds), your ability to collaborate (with students, parents and teachers) and initiate & plan (organise and execute the plans) allows our school to host these amazing community events on our beautiful campus. These experiences may have challenged you or strengthen your existing skills. We also thank you for being ethical. You purchased your ticket and worked your shift and joined in on the fun and games when you were not working. Finally, the global significance of our events mirrors some of the UN SDGS.
Uploading Volunteering Experience to MB
The deadline for experiences to be uploaded (description, reflections and evidence) is December 15th at 4pm.
Last week I posted Part 1. Here is Part 2:
Candles!
Hi students, parents and teachers, we’re collecting materials for a service project and we need your help!
If you have:
-useless/unused candles
-burned out candles
-empty candle holders
Please put them in the box near the PTA desk in the Centre Foyer. It’ll really help us a lot!
Thank you!!

WE NEED COSMETICS! We would be grateful if you can bring us any cosmetics that you don’t use anymore. Please drop them off in the box outside D229.
Required: Blush, lipstick, lipliner, eyeliner, eyebrow pencil, eyeshadow, mascara, etc.
Not Required: Suncream, face cream, moisturizers, etc.
We are looking forward to your kind donation😊
