New Unity of Inquiry
This week we started a new unity of inquiry, "How We Organize Ourselves".
As you know St. Jude's Academy is on a process of implementing IB Primary Years Program (for more info visit: http://www.ibo.org/pyp/ ).
I'm very excited about this new unity and what students can get from it.
Title: "OFF TO WORK WE GO!"
Our central idea: "A community is made up of people who work together and depend on each other."
Lines of Inquiry:
*Jobs people have in a community
*Why and how people can help each other in a community
*How jobs interconnect in a community
It would be nice if you could share with your child what you do for a living, and tell him/her what role your job plays in the community.
Thank you,
Mrs. Padovan

Check Marks...
I'm sure you have heard about our check mark chart. If not, watch the video below.
JK students agreed to:
Line up quietly
Talk one student at a time
Be kind and polite
Work hard
Clean up after themselves
If they do all above they will get 5 check marks throughout the day. And there is always a surprise by the end of the day, either house points, stickers or a little treat.
