We will organize our ideas, our energies, and our time, all while reminding each other to accept the challenges and personal growth that come with synthesizing our work and sharing it with a public audience. Students are strongly encouraged to attend to details this week, in order to be prepared for personal Exhibition of Learning and be effectively present as a volunteer and audience member for others.
Volunteers & Gallery/Roundtable Audience Commitments
During transitions or extra time after rehearsals this week, please sign up to be a volunteer or an audience member for Gallery Walks or Roundtables. We still need volunteers. If interested, please contact Madison O'Brien or Kimberly. Thank you.
Only students who sign up for Gallery Walks and Roundtables in advance will be admitted to these venues due to space considerations. To sign up, please ask a staff member to add your name to the Gallery Walk & Round Table Sign Up document. Remember to write down where and when you have committed to being; we will be expecting you!
Schedule
Because there are so many details, you might choose to use our digital or paper planner (available in office). Then, please, enter your choices and responsibilities into your google calendar and create reminders for yourself. Doing this not only gives you a reference point, should you forget what you planned to do and where and when your responsibilities are, it also reinforces your memory.
Information
This blog as well as the Exhibitions of Learning Website will be kept up to date. If you have a question or miss a detail, these are the places to look. Don't forget to share details with parents. They are welcome at Exhibitions of Learning.
