Shifters,

 

Happy new semester. I will be at the Blind Pig tonight at 6:30.
I have a small agenda.

1.       Lots of discussion about the PARCC and testnav on our list that I would like to get people’s feeling on. I’m still catching up with Charles’ posts myself.

2.       I would like to talk about a video I have been pondering called “Good Morning Mission Hill”. As Kenwood is thinking about its identity as a model/laboratory/experimental school, I think the democratic model is one the fits the vision I’m hearing emerge. So, what next?

3.       3-5^th grade computational thinking and mathematics. I’m going to spend some time today pondering what might be the right curricular connections. I’ll confer with the CS4h group. Others are also reaching out. Let’s put our heads together on this.

 

For those who can make it, see you this evening.

-George
