From the Counselors
Transitions: Part of the international school experience is students moving; new students arriving and current students leaving. An important step in transitioning in an international move is having an opportunity to say farewell. Please carve out some time for your students to share leaving messages with each other, using Jamboards/Padlets or other developmentally appropriate tools. For the leaver, a healthy closure is important. It is also important to take some time to be thoughtful of our students who are staying and continuing at AISC. Take time to check in with your students and ask them what actions they are taking to say goodbye, how they feel about it and what thoughts do they have about making new friends in the upcoming school year. Stayers are key members in our community. Further information on stayers is found in this article Globally Grounded: 6 Steps to Being a Successful Stayer in an International School And this AISC video on Goers Stayers and Newbies could be a fun addition to Morning Meetings, for the older grades.
And if you need something just for fun, to make you smile and feel happy about the world!
Stay safe.
Regards,
Lynn, Dave, and Elliot
