This Week @ PS 88Q
January 23, 2022
A Message From Mrs. O'Shaughnessy
This week all students in Grades 2-5 received their username and password for Chess In Schools. Our teachers received training last week and will received more this week. Our goal is to have one period a week in school where the students are playing chess. This amazing opportunity, afforded to us by Council Member Holden, is amazing. Your child can play anytime at home, as the lessons are all virtual. I can't wait to play with the students, as I myself do not know how to play. We will also engage in actual chess in the school, with chess boards being delivered to school. If you want to read more about this program, here is the link https://chessintheschools.org/.
This week our students are continuing to take their Middle of the Year diagnostic assessments. As a reminder, these are not "tests" but more of a check in to assess where our students are, and how to better teach them based on their level of proficiency.
Have a wonderful week, and stay warm!
