- Mentorship: In addition to the curriculum units mentioned above, the Enrichment Program is also proud to offer its Mentorship program to enrichment students in 3rd, 4th and 5th grades. This past year, Students met with each mentor for three sessions in small groups, and were able to experience first hand the world of drama, and the science behind sound and music! Our two talented mentors this year were Mr. Robert Veech and Mr. Gene Forman.
- Mr. Veech is an accomplished musician, teacher, scientist and inventor. He holds over 100 patents in his name and has worked for many years as a presenter for Long Island's Conference for Kids. He has also worked with students in many school districts and BOCES programs across Long Island. After taking part in this year's Mentorship, students came away with a better understanding of how sound is created and the wonders of music, instruments, and symphonies.
- Mr. Gene Forman is a successful stage director, writer, and actor. He has appeared in dozens of television commercials and programs such as Saturday Night Live, All My Children, and Survivor. Students rose to the challenge of performing in front of their peers and learned valuable public speaking skills that will no doubt help them when speaking or performing in front of an audience.

Date: 2010-09-02 02:55 am (UTC)а у нас та же жвачка, о которой ты писала. учительница, которая была нам обещана /Елка хотела у нее учиться еще год назад! - да и училка ей сказала в лагере для "начинающих школьников", недельном, перед самым К - приходи ко мне в класс через год!!/, вместе с подружкой же лучшей - не у нас. у кого - понятия не имею. возможно, кстати, это происки подружкиных родителей. по-моему, у мамы подружки на нас аллергия. папа, вроде, никаких "фИ" никогда не высказывал, но у мамы лицо выражает рвотный понос, когда она меня видит. не знаю, не знаю. настроение то еще у меня. вот поглядим мы в первый день, пошла ли подружка к той училке, которую нам обещала учительница К дочери.. у меня да и у мужа нет сомнений, что учительница К рекомендовала Елку именно той, что хотели, вместе с девочкой - сказав нам, на следующий после конференции, день "у Эли будет замечательная учительница и чудесная подружка в новом году!" - подмигивая. как это понять, кроме как то, чего хотелось? извини, мусорю тут у тебя, душу отвожу.
удачи Ребекке, еще раз, и очень рада за вас обеих ;)

Date: 2010-09-04 01:10 am (UTC)OMG, did you figure out what happened and why? I don't know how system works in your school as far as shuffling kids between parallel classes, but I found out this year that it is possible to request a certain teacher or a certain kid to be (or not) in your class. It is not 100%, but in my school they seem to try to accommodate.
Can you go to the principal and ask to be transferred to that teacher? Or may be ask the teacher to find what happened?
As for parents who don't like you, I would not worry. Depending how friendly girls are, may be you can reduce their interaction to just school time (recess, gym). Rebekah made a friend in 1st grade. That girl also really liked Rebekah and they both were begging to have playdates. I was all for it, the other mother was like a witch. She would always be too busy to bring her girl over (they live down the block, 4 min walk) or they always had other plans when her daughter was inviting Rebekah over to their house. And the worst part, she kept promising Rebekah, not just me, but directly to my kid, that she will be invited over to play and to swim in their pool. Obviously Rebekah was never invited. WHO THE HECK PROMISES THINGS LIKE THAT TO A KID? After the second time I told Rebekah that she cannot go to their house ever. She is more the welcome to invite girl to our house for a playdate, but her mother has to call me to confirm. I never heard from them again. And from what I can tell, girls are not close friends anymore, even tough I saw them play together at another girl's birthday party.

Date: 2010-09-04 01:40 am (UTC)Also, since I am bragging -- school sent us the criteria they used to select kids into the program and what percentile my kid placed in; admission test (the test she took in June) - 85%, report card - 100%, state math test - 100%, state English test - 100%.
And now she wants to open a restaurant. LOL
