Come hear how, from ECP through Grade 5, students engage with writing as they grow and learn through the grades.
Learning at Trinity 2012
How Students Learn to Write at Trinity School
February 1 in the Upper Campus Great Hall
Community Breakfast begins at 8:30 a.m.
Program begins at 9:00 a.m.
From building a block castle in preschool to crafting a persuasive essay complimented by a short movie in Grade 5, students learn to write under the sensitive and expert guidance of their teachers. These same teachers will demonstrate key skills and concepts that every Trinity School year adds to your child’s writing repertoire.
Trinity School’s overarching goal for student writing is this:
“Write to know what you think and why. Learn many forms of communication. Match message with audience.” – from Trinity School’s Basic 8
Each year Learning at Trinity provides the School community with breakfast and an in-depth look at how a key curricular area builds across the grades, as told by those who teach. I hope you will take advantage of this dynamic opportunity to better understand what your child is learning and why. The presentation slides will be posted to the website following the event, but there is nothing like the real thing. Come if you can!
Lower Camus doors will open at 8:40 a.m. to allow parents to leave children early and dart across town to the Upper Campus. We’ll save breakfast for you!
