This joyous group of 'English as a 2nd Language' adult students in our Adult Education program visited with some preschool students yesterday, to share what they've learned so far, in the form of several holiday songs. The kids (AND the adults) LOVED it!
As the pieces fell into place, we recognized the Developmental Relationships Framework, a guiding document across the entire district. Once the puzzle was complete, all teams convened in groups to debrief and discuss how the DRF is connected to our work done at Parsons.
Here are some more! The important part of this challenge was for the blindfolded person to LISTEN carefully to instructions -- and for the speaker to provide CLEAR DIRECTIONS. Really great lessons.
The Central Office staffers participated in a TERRIFIC Team Building exercise this morning at Parsons. 2-person teams, (one blindfolded, the other giving verbal directions) had to navigate to the lobby, find their piece, and place it with the others. But beware the bubble wrap!
Always in our hearts. Remembering Sandy Hook - today and every day.
Here we are, folks! It's Friday and that means it's time to grab yourself a cup of coffee and take a few minutes to read all the great info for MPS next week. Enjoy!
