This week I’m in St. Paul, MN for the National Immersion Education Conference and site visits. Today I visited L’Etoile du Nord, French Immersion School in the St. Paul Public School District. Un grand merci à M. Béni who gave us the tour and school overview. We even accompanied the 6th graders on a field trip to a Ronald K. Brown/Evidence dance performance! (FYI, Ron Brown is my favorite choreographer of all time and I hadn’t seen him or his work since we left New York. Quel grand plaisir!) LNFI has translated the constructivist math series Everyday Math and we’ve inquired into purchasing their translation for The French School.
Tomorrow I will be at Lakes International Language Academy, a Spanish immersion public charter school in Forest Lake, MN. LILA is implementing the IB PYP and I will sit in on a kindergarten grade team meeting and hear about the end of their first unit of inquiry.
More to come…
