SIS Weekly November 3rd, 2023
Dear families,
Teacher Leaders
Our Wednesday staff meetings are dedicated to professional development. This week, staff chose topics to provoke thinking, reflection and understanding across six topics. Peer presenters, particularly those from the same school, are compelling as there is a familiar and common context for both presenters and participants. These are the presentations shared by our teacher leaders::
Using Mark Band descriptors for assessments - Michael Busbee
Well-being; A practical application - Kester Evans
Personality in connection to teaching style - Stuart Ramsey
Using the Concrete, Pictorial, Abstract (CPA) model in Primary Maths - Laurance Ginsberg
Spanish Language Acquisition with Teaching Proficiency through Reading and Storytelling - Nisse Welchman
Power Privilege Implicit Bias - Maya Strzempka and Alli Denson
亲爱的家长,
教师主讲人
我们的每周三全员会旨在提升员工的专业水平。本周,员工选择了六个话题,以引发深思、反思,并更好的理解。尤其是因为主讲人和听众都身处同一所学校,共享熟悉且相同的工作环境,这有助于建立与参与者之间更紧密的共鸣。以下是由我们的教室主讲人分享的话题:
评估的分级标准使用 - 由Michael Busbee主讲
学生福祉的实际应用 - 由Kester Evans主讲
性格与教学风格的关联 - 由Stuart Ramsey主讲
在小学数学中使用具象、形象和抽象(CPA)模型 - 由Laurance Ginsberg主讲
通过阅读和讲故事提高西班牙语语言水平 - 由Nisse Welchman主讲
权力、特权和潜在偏见 - 由Maya Strzempka和Alli Denson主讲

Parent Survey
This week, we will continue to share the feedback you provided the school and steps for improvement.
家长问卷调查反馈
这周,我将继续与大家分享家长问卷调查的反馈和改进建议。
Over the years, SIS has continued to add staff to support students with academic needs. This approach is aligned with our inclusion philosophy. We believe the needs of students are being met with this additional EAL and Learning Support. What other academic support would you like to see?
多年来,SIS一直不断增加员工以支持有学习需求的学生。这一做法与我们的包容理念完全契合。我们相信通过增加EAL(英语作为第二语言)和学习支持人员,能够更好地满足学生的需求。您希望看到哪些其他方面的学业支持呢?
We have five full-time counsellors which is in keeping with the counselling associations, including the ‘International School Counselor Association’.
Additionally, next year, we will redistribute responsibilities in the Secondary school so our College Counsellor has more time to support G11 and G12 students with college guidance and application.
依照心理咨询协会的建议,我们目前拥有五名全职心理咨询师,其中包括“国际学校心理咨询师协会”的成员。
此外,我们将重新分配中学职员的工作职责,以确保我们的大学顾问有更多的时间来支持11年级和12年级的学生进行大学指导和申请。
There is room for growth in helping our new students settle when they arrive at SIS. This is something that we will develop through a more robust ambassador programme.
在迎接新生就读SIS的时候,我们有许多可以改进的空间。我们正策划着一个更为健全的大使计划,以实现不断的完善。
