Dear Colleagues,
Now is the time to begin planning your curriculum
themes for the upcoming school year. Our focus
theme for this newsletter is Global Warming. But
there are many other excellent themes you can
develop, and you may find more suggestions on our
Fall Themes Page (http://rs6.net/tn.jsp?t=56rwpwbab.0.rqqztwbab.4pv6l7n6.207966&ts=S0189&p=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.21stcenturyschools.com%2FFall_Unit_Themes.htm). Use these
themes to help your
students learn all the required standards and skills
and much more!
You can have fun AND prepare for a fresh start in
the fall by joining us for one of our summer
workshops in Las Vegas or San Antonio!
Did you know
that laughter in the classroom actually increases
learning?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
An Inconvenient Truth - Global Warming
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If you have not yet seen the film, An
Inconvenient Truth, we strongly urge you to go
see it! We also recommend purchasing the book by
the same title.
This was an excellent film, and it contained
indisputable scientific evidence and data which
startled me. This is one issue that is not just
important, it is critical. For example, the
amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere has
increased at an alarming rate during the last 45
years, and if the trend continues (if we do nothing)
that amount will double in the next 50 years!
The global
warming occurring as a result of the present level of
CO2 is causing the polar ice caps, Greenland, and
glaciers
worldwide to melt at an alarming rate. The Arctic ice
cap has been reduced by 40% in size during the past
40 years, and each year the rate of melting
increases! This increase of carbon dioxide has
multiple effects on our planet.
When the children born in this decade reach the age
of 50, they will be dealing with catastrophic
conditions if nothing is done to decrease the level of
carbon dioxide in our atmosphere.
The purpose of education is to prepare our students
to live successful, happy lives as participatory global
citizens. Global warming and other environmental
issues will be among the most important our children
will have to face. We have to prepare them today.
Global Warming - http://rs6.net/tn.jsp?t=56rwpwbab.0.sqqztwbab.4pv6l7n6.207966&ts=S0189&p=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.21stCenturySchools.com%2FGlobal_Warming.htm
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
On-Site Professional Development
We are now scheduling on-site professional development (http://rs6.net/tn.jsp?t=56rwpwbab.0.pdvnn7n6.4pv6l7n6.207966&ts=S0189&p=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.21stcenturyschools.com%2FOn-Site.htm) for
summer and fall. Please
reserve your dates for on-site workshops now to
ensure getting the best dates for your campus or
district.
Contact us today by email (mailto:On-Site@21stCenturySchools.com)or by
phone at 512-837-7026.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Low Performing Schools
If your school has been designated as a Low
Performing School, or is in danger of being designated
as such, we can help. Let us bring you the
professional staff development and curriculum design
to turn your school around. We can bring your staff
the specific classroom and curriculum design
strategies to make real change and bring your test
scores up!
A growing body of research indicates that
a rigorous, relevant curriculum which is project-
based will increase student motivation, student
learning, and therefore, student test scores. Test
prepping should NOT be your focus. Let us help you
turn the situation around today!
Contact us . . . (mailto:LowPerforming@21stCenturySchools.com)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Smaller Learning Communities
Among several important factors required for success
with smaller learning communities, professional staff
development and curriculum design are imperative.
Research clearly demonstrates that achievement
increases when students attend small schools which
utilize performance-based assessments and an
interdisciplinary, "less is more" curriculum focused on
inquiry and intellectual skills.
If you are in the process of establishing SLCs, or
Smaller Learning Communities, you know that
professional staff development and curriculum design
are two vitally important factors in the success of
your SLC. We can help you make your SLC a
success!
