Integrated Curriculum Plan - Contextual Factors

As we begin preparing for the Pine Family Night (March 19, 2009) it is important to have an understanding of the participants. Check out http://www.doe.state.in.us/ Under helpful links click on "School Data," type in Pine Elementary School. Gather contextual factors from this site.

Contextual Factors: Research the community, district and school factors that may affect the teaching-learning process. Write a 1-2 page narrative describing the demographics of Pine Elementary School and how this impacts your plan.

In addition please ask the Literacy Coach what she feels the families need. Place these questions in the comment section and I will forward them to Peggy Thomas, Literacy Coach.

The address for Pine School is:
1594 N 500 E
Michigan City, IN 46360-9524

We will need to be at the school at 5:15 p.m. to set up. The event will be from 6:00-7:00 p.m. We will be responsible for staying after the event to tear down and clean up.

  3. Here is Peggy's comment to Amanda's question.

    That is hard to say. We talked about devising a system where when they arrive we would give them a color that would indicate which center to start. I think it is possible to have 10 people at a time at one center but it would be hard to control.
