Sra. Norma I. Colón Torres

Directora Académica

La administración de CEEB (College Entrance Examination Board) al 12mo y 11 y la

administración de PRESAT fue todo un programa estructurado aquí en Washburn el pasado 19 y

20 de octubre. El que los estudiantes puedan tomar esta prueba en la escuela de procedencia les

ofrece más seguridad, pues estas son administradas por maestros que le ofrecen clases y en los

salones a los cuales están acostumbrados. Todo lo antes señalado crea un ambiente positivo para

que el estudiante sienta menos presión y así pueda demostrar mejor su conocimiento, obteniendo

así mejores resultados.

Felicitamos a los estudiantes por el seguimiento a todas las normas y reglas establecidas por el

CEEB y al equipo de maestros por la excelente labor realizada.

Continuamos relacionando los estudiantes de escuela secundaria con la vida universitaria.

- Martes- 18 de octubre-visita y orientación al 12mo y 11mo grado por la Universidad

Interamericana

- Viernes 4 de noviembre-visita del 4to año a la UPR en Ponce al decanato de su

posible especialización

- 27 de octubre-Open House en la Universidad Interamericana

Los proyectos del nivel elemental siguen enfatizando la lectura como estrategia básica de

aprendizaje. Los niveles de lectura tanto en español como en Ingles estarán siendo evaluados

durante el mes de noviembre. La lectura es, será, y continuara siendo clave en nuestro currículo.

“La lectura abre las puertas a nuevos mundos y conocimiento.”

Sra. Magaly Jiménez Peña

Trabajadora Social

Saludos padres, madres y estudiantes:

Del 23 al 29 de octubre se celebra en Puerto Rico la semana de la Calidad de Vida. La

Organización Mundial de la Salud (OMS) define el concepto como "la percepción que un

individuo tiene de su lugar en la existencia, en el contexto de la cultura y del sistema de valores

en los que vive y en relación con sus objetivos, sus expectativas, sus normas, sus inquietudes."

La calidad de vida se evalúa analizando cinco áreas diferentes: bienestar físico (salud, seguridad

física), bienestar material (ingresos, pertenencias, vivienda, transporte), bienestar social

(relaciones personales, amistades, familia, comunidad), desarrollo humano (productividad,

contribución, educación) y bienestar emocional (autoestima, mentalidad, inteligencia emocional,

espiritualidad).

Según la Teoría de la Autorrealización de Abraham Maslow, el ser humano tiene unas

necesidades que cubrir a lo largo de su vida para finalmente sentirse realizado. Maslow explica

esta Jerarquía de Necesidades mediante una pirámide, en la cual debemos cubrir unas

necesidades básicas para subir al próximo nivel.

Este es un buen momento para detenernos, autoevaluarnos e identificar en donde estamos y así,

redefinir nuestras metas de ser necesario. Un padre/madre con un concepto claro de sus metas y

prioridades en la vida

puede lograr mucho más

en el desarrollo y

bienestar de sus hijos.

“A fuerza de construir bien, se llega a buen arquitecto.”

-Aristóteles

7th, 8th Conjugation exercises and incorporating them into sentences.

Comments:

Bonjour Parents:

The students are really motivated with learning a third language. It is my upmost

recommendation that you listen to them as they practice.

Also, it is highly recommended that they have a dictionary of French-English so

they can look up for words on their own time and seek self-improvement.

In class assessments I have acknowledged that the students have been studying

and practicing at home. They have completed the work and have helped each

other to complete as well. Keep up the good work!

I have been having trouble with IsiNet. I am waiting for them to fix it so I can

put the grades of the students in the system.

Up until now every student is in good standard, but any doubts feel free to

schedule an appointment.
