THE PAW PRINT Inspiring growth and promoting educational excellence through home-school connections.

Dear Edgewood Community,

As the spring months attempt to approach us, we are gearing up in the planning and preparation phases of our 2018-19 master schedule design. There are many levels of development that go into creating our instructional schedule. With that in mind, our team always begins with identifying the needs of our students. Supported by the work of educational researchers Wiggins & McTighe, backwards design starts with the end results in mind and then uses guided question to socratically develop action steps toward the outcome. In this case, the outcome is to develop an instructional schedule which supports differentiated opportunities for all learners. Using the framework of a Multi-Tiered Systems of Support (MTSS), we are able to properly identify students needs and design groupings for intervention. Likewise, we are able to identify areas of strength and design appropriate groupings for enrichment opportunities.

This visual depicts our socratic method outcomes as they correlate to action steps. While this process takes months to unpack, it is thoughtful in placing the emphasis on what is in the best interest of all students. We look forward to springing forward with our design in the coming weeks.

Best,Principal Hultquist

Use Your Voice to INSPIRE POSITIVE GROWTH in everyone!

Come gather and join the effort to help create an amazing WHOLE child learning experience for Edgewood students, faculty, and staff. The PTO works collaboratively to supplement the academic learning environment and provide a special touch that makes school a home-away-from-home. You can use your super powers to help us make a positive difference.

PTO MEETING DATES This year we have arranged for all PTO meetings to take place in the evening. This will provide an opportunity for families not available during the daytime hours to attend. The same day of the week was chosen each month for consistency and efficient calendar planning. If you are unable to attend the evening meetings, please do not hesitate to reach out to the PTO Leadership Team to discuss thoughts and ideas. We welcome the Edgewood Family to work in a unified manner toward a common goal.

Who’s Packing Your Parachute? US jet fighter pilot in Vietnam, Charles Plumb, had completed 75 combat missions when he was shot down. Plumb was ejected and parachuted into enemy hands, where he spent six years in a Vietnamese prison. One day, a man came up to him and said, “You’re Plumb! You flew jet fighters in Vietnam from the aircraft carrier, Kitty Hawk. You were shot down!” Plumb was confused and asked how the man knew about that.

“I packed your parachute,” the man replied.

The man then shook his hand and said, “I guess it worked!” Plumb assured him it had and said, “If that chute hadn’t worked, I wouldn’t be here today.” Plumb thought a lot about that man who held the fate of someone he did not even know, in his hands. He kept pondering how many times he might have seen the guy, and not even said anything because he was a fighter pilot and the stranger was just a sailor.”

Charles Plumb is now a motivational speaker telling this story to hundreds. After telling it, he always asks his audiences,

“Who’s packing your parachute?” In our life, be it personal or work related, many people have a hand in our parachutes. Are you taking the time to acknowledge, thank, and reward them? It is very easy to overlook the work of many. It takes a lot of people to create a team. #whoispackingyourparachute

The bestselling author of Wherever You Go, There You Are (more than 1,000,000 total copies in print) and Full Catastrophe Living joins forces with his wife, Myla, in this groundbreaking revised edition (released in October, 2014) of the classic book about mindfulness in parenting children of all ages. Updated with new material--including an all new introduction and expanded practices in the epilogue--Everyday Blessings remains one of the few books on parenting that embraces the emotional, intuitive, and deeply personal experience of being a parent, applying the groundbreaking "mind/body connection" expertise from global mindfulness leader, Jon Kabat-Zinn and his wife, Myla Kabat-Zinn. With the growing interest in mindfulness as a way of living, and with increasing scientific evidence of its value for optimal health and well-being, including a new field in psychology devoted to mindful parenting, and with mindfulness being increasingly integrated into K-12 education, there has never been a better time for cultivating greater mindfulness in parenting and in family life.A

Edgewood will welcome 'Art Goes To School’, the week of March 19-23, during scheduled art classes. AGTS is a volunteer organization that brings art appreciation to elementary schools throughout Bucks County. Grades 1-5 will have the opportunity to view an extensive portfolio of interesting painting, prints, and sculpture reproductions of various artists. The portfolio usually includes African, African American, American, Asian, European, Hispanic, Middle Eastern, and Native American works of art. In the past, students have really enjoyed the visit so don't forget to ask them questions about what they have learned!

Mark your calendars for Edgewood’s Annual Art & L i teracy Fa i r on Thursday, April 26th from 6:30pm - 8:30pm! Look for a S ignUp Genius in Apri l for volunteer opportunities. Please contact Kim Law at [email protected] or 215-493-4759 with any questions.

Mindful Parenting Forum Update: Music lessons, sports practices. Math tutoring. CCD or Hebrew school. The list of activities that we run our kids to is endless. So often we do not focus on the moment and on our children in that moment. As you read this inhale and exhale. Think of the beauty of the day and not the stress.

Taking the time to truly focus on our parenting skills is hard. This group has spent the fall semester discussing the book Everyday Blessings: the inner work of mindful parenting by Myla and Jon Kabat-Zinn. We are now moving on to activities that will take just 1 hour of time where we can work on the skills of mindfulness. The various exercises are all inspired from what our children are learning with Project Mindfulness. JOIN US!

Tiger Treats Phys. Ed and Music came together the week of February 22-28.  Mr. Gallo and Mrs. Kimock joined forces to bring Drums Alive to all K-5 students at Edgewood.  Drums Alive (a.k.a. Fitness Drumming) brings together exercise, music, beats, rhythms and drumming using upbeat music.  This form of exercise, using physio balls and drumsticks, increases heart rate and practices with listening while following a music form--all while bringing out the inner drummer in us all!. Classes were able to participate on their gym AND music days, so they got to have double the fun! By now, hopefully you've heard about how much fun this was. Even our custodians, cafeteria friends, paraprofessionals and teachers grabbed drum sticks and joined in!  All students did a fabulous job! 

MARCH TO THE BEAT OF YOUR OWN DRUM!

Edgewood’s Art and Literacy Fair Thursday, April 26, 2018 6:30-8:30 pm

Storyboard Overview

Timeline: Fri., March 2 – “Read Across America Day’ - Kickoff with samples displayed in library. Fri. March 16 – Storyboard proposals submitted for approval.

Fri. March 23 – Proposals returned to families.

Mon. April 23 through Thurs. April 26 – Students bring storyboards into school and drop them off at the library. The boards will be placed in an assigned spot for you by the Literacy Team. You may set up any extra display pieces when you arrive at the fair that evening.

Requirements: *You may work as an individual, with a partner, or as a family group to create a storyboard.

*Display board is a tri-fold panel no larger than 36” tall by 48” wide. You will also have a small amount of space directly in front of your board to display items such as a copy of your book, copies of an activity page you made, etc.. if you choose.

*Display must include your name, the title of your book, author, and illustrator (if applicable), and at least 3 story elements. The story elements you should choose from are setting, characters, plot, conflict/solution, tone, or theme. The way that you present these story elements on your board is up to you.

*Display should include some type of recommendation, possibly in response to: ‘If you like books that ____________________ , this is the book for you.’

‘I would recommend this book to ___________________ because_______.’

Suggestions: *Be creative and celebrate the book in a way that inspires you!

*You are welcome to dress like a character from your featured book or as the author of the book. Some students create an activity to go with it such as a word search or bookmark - this is a completely optional addition.

*You do not have to stand with your display the whole evening but we ask that each student pick a half hour block to stay with their display.

This year’s GAL AND HER PAL as well as the GUY AND HIS GAL Fun Nights will both be held at the NAC Sports Training Center. The address is 120 Pheasant Run, located in front of the NAC.

Please join us for a fun filled evening full of games, dance, and team spirit! No athletic ability is required to participate but sneakers are a must!

This is not a drop off event. Both evenings have been designed to allow students to spend time with their families and friends. We understand that circumstances may not allow every child to attend with a parent so feel free to bring a special person instead!

GUY AND HIS GAL – APRIL 12TH 6:45 TO 8:45PM (son event)

GAL AND HER PAL – APRIL 19TH 6:45 TO 8:45PM (daughter event)

Space is limited and must be reserved in advance. Please be sure to complete and return the appropriate registration form, waiver, and payment by Wednesday March 28th.

Cost per Event: $17 for Adult with 1 student

$5 for each additional student

If you have any questions, please contact Andrea Baker at [email protected] or Carrie Bannon at [email protected]
