Investigations and Expressions Summer Symposium: Reggio-inspired learning for educators

The Bishop Strachan School – July 3, 4 and 5, 2013 from 9 am to 3 pm

Here is a chance to extend your thinking and your practice by considering a responsive, inquiry-based approach to teaching and learning. Work with members of our Junior School team (JK to Grade 6) who will share their experience with project work, big ideas, documentation and Reggio-inspired environments. We offer hands-on sessions in which participants can coconstruct knowledge with fellow educators and create plans to bring this exciting work back to their own contexts.

Register online by June 15. Hurry! Space is limited.



 

Ms. Deryn Lavell
Head of School
Since our founding as an all girls school in 1867, a time when there were very few options for women in education, BSS has developed a profound level of expertise in the particular learning needs of girls. That expertise has evolved over time through our own living laboratory of educating more than 50,000 girls over 145 years, as well as the continuing evidence emerging from science and brain research, advances in pedagogy, and our constant collaboration with peer educators. It is fascinating to see now that the natural learning styles of girls such as collaboration, real-world associations, creativity and curiosity, coincide perfectly with the 21st century learning skills all schools are currently pursuing. We’re ahead of the curve by at least a decade and pushing the boundaries of those frontiers that will set a new standard in program excellence. That’s our goal. Deryn Lavell Head of School

With over 140 years of experience helping young women become leaders, BSS is among the premier girls' schools in North America. In academics, arts and athletics, BSS has an extraordinary faculty and state-of-the-art facilities to give students the resources that encourage her to be her very best. There are a wide range of AP courses available and a full co-curricular program. BSS is home to students from around the world. With the right education, girls who want to change the world become women who do.
