The Weekly Word from CDS FP, May 11–May 15, 2020
Hello First Program Community,
FP's focus remains on meeting our students’ needs as best we can during e-learning. This includes a balanced approach to supporting students academically, socially, emotionally, and even regarding their physical health.
FP Virtual Sports Day went great! We had absolutely fantastic participation by students. Last Friday we cheered along students as they participated in our Virtual Sports Day, led by our PE teacher & Athletic Coordinator, Mr. Tronsgard. Thank you so much to the parents for supporting your child at home with this event. All FP teachers were working hard behind the scenes to make this as successful as possible, and it was their collaboration that really allowed this event to shine. Thank you to our Ed Tech Director, Mr. Bray and Ms. Jennifer Kim for conducting things behind the scenes. Mr. Cool and Mr. T hosted the event for four hours! After he has recharged a little, Mr. T will share with our community a look back at Sports Day. Great job, Mr. Tronsgard!
We enter into our second week where teachers' Morning Meetings begin at 8:30am. This was one part of the revised schedule. Last week was also the first time the FP timetable changed to have reading, writing, math, music and art class lengthened from 30 minutes to 40 minutes.
Stay tuned to our Dates to Know. In addition to the events listed, we will be sure to keep you updated as events are developed.
Please view pictures below of what e-learning has looked like around FP this past week. We look forward to seeing you digitally throughout the week!
Educationally Yours,
Mr. Hill
Director of First Program

Each week, we present you a video that shows a day of e-learning from one of our teachers. This week we are showcasing what a day for Ms. Kristine Bahr and for Mr. Jon Fejes is like. We appreciate the great work that all the teachers are doing especially for having adapted so well to e-learning.
