From the desk of our
S.T.E.A.M. Lab
This week in STEAM we took inspiration from Simchat Torah to learn about the number 10 and about rules. We learned that Computer Programmers give our technological devices rules to follow (codes) to make them work. We then became computer programmers as we created and played our own coding game (Code Hopper). We also focused on number recognition, sequencing and counting from 1 - 10.

Calling all Parents
In the next few weeks you will be hearing from either a principal or the head of school with these two questions:
- What are we doing well as a school?
- What could we be doing even better as a school?
To facilitate our conversations, please give some thought to your responses in advance. We look forward to hearing from you, our partners in education!
