WEEK AT A GLANCE
Week of August 30, 2021
|
INTEGRATED STEM THEMES RELATING EACH DISCIPLINE TO ESSENTIAL QUESTIONS CONCERNING INVENTION:
Issues of pattern, process and scale when invention allows for a solution to a problem.
|
Reading: How can circumstances push us to create new inventions and to build our abilities to try again?
|
What can we learn about design processes from the sketches of inventors-- from the U.S., Honduras, Mexico and other places? What mental and/or creative processes do they share? |
How have scientific processes and inventions changed the lifestyle and environment of Galveston (both currently and historically)? |
What can social sciences teach us about how to reframe and reimagine our mindsets about innovation and location - both academic and personal?
|

Semana de 11 de octubre de 2021
Muchas gracias por su colaboracion continua a lo largo de esta semana y las reuniones bien pasadas con cada entre Uds. Felicito tanto el poder platicar de metas individualizadas que mejor apoyaran las capacidades y intereses de su alumno. Muchisimas gracias por su apoyo!
********
Muy Estimados Padres: Estoy profundamente agradecido con aquellos de ustedes que donaron lápices a nuestra clase esta semana. Los lápices son un gran invento original dejándonos mostrar la luz de la mente. ¡Y nuestros muy apreciados estudiantes en Salon 315 tienen muchas ideas geniales!
Además, se puede anunciar esta semana el primer borrador de AUSTEM On Point - nuestro boletín informativo bilingüe de 5 páginas que comienza en los próximos días. Los niños ya han hablado de varios temas clave sobre los que escribir. ¡Adelante autores! Esta semana continuaremos integrando el plan de estudios STEM en todo momento, continuaremos discutiendo <<FLOW>> como una metáfora de la electricidad, de la conductividad facilitando conexiones entre ideas, del desarrollo de la fluidez en matemáticas, en la lectura y en el mejoramiento del enfoque para aplicar los mapas de pensamiento en ambos idiomas de manera sistémica. Los estudiantes continúan su revisión en espiral de los conceptos en los TEKS a través de los temas clave del STEM, sobre todo enfocándonos en las ciencias naturales y las matemáticas. Martes y jueves por la mañanita [a partir de la semana después] se comienza con las tutorías en inglés para los alumnos recién llegados. Sigamos entonces con el calendario de tutorías después de la escuela en grupos pequeños interactivos.
¡Muchas gracias por el continuo trabajo en equipo! Saludos muy cordiales a Uds.
Atentamente, Camille Jones, Maestra Grado Qto, STEM AMS
