Drop-off and Pick Up We are on a roll. Patience and choosing safety over convenience have created a pretty pleasant entry and dismissal time around the school. We’d like to thank drivers and walkers for being respectful of each other and thank you in advance for keeping it up for the rest of the school year. It was a busy week at New Brighton. We’d like to thank parents for joining us at our School Opening Rehearsal and our invited guests who joined us for the Official Opening. Our students were amazing. Invited guests let us know what a welcoming environment our school has and several made particular comments about the displays of student work and how engaged students were during their “Special Guest” tours of the school. Our Grade 3 Celebration of Learning had a great turn out and students were so excited to share their drumming skills, dance skills and personal affirmations. They are awesome. Our Grade 2 students had the opportunity to interview a reporter with 660 News/Breakfast Television. And then he interviewed a couple of them. New Brighton School made the news and a segment on Breakfast Television. Watch Dave Wills talk about his time with this link. http://www.btcalgary.ca/videos/ What are we Reading Our staff is preparing for a discussion around “The Rules of Math” and which rules might we be teaching that actually hinder learning in later grades? You might enjoy the read and you might enjoy recognizing your own school experience in some of the examples. Have a Great Week
