Dear Parents,
Colleen
O’Mahony, our Learning Specialist, comes to us with much experience in
assessing student’s learning styles and learning deficiencies.
Already I’ve seen what a huge help she has been to teachers, parents and
students in coming up with action plans to increase success for students
who ordinarily struggle with some aspect of learning or who need to be
challenged as exceptionally bright children. Learning is impeded by
simply getting thoughts written on paper, taking tests, organizing
thoughts, processing information, and so on. I urge you to come to
her parent education series to find out more about how your child learns
and how you can help. In the field of education, teaching and
learning today is not a simple lesson plan! Teachers are asked more
and more to teach to multiple intelligences, and to provide modifications
and alternative options for students to let us know what they’ve
learned. We’re very fortunate to have Mrs. O’Mahony and the
Learning Specialist department a part of our school. Come and be
enlightened on Wednesday, January 19th at 7:00 p.m. in the cafeteria.
