I have not hear this term here in the States. A Google search revealed nothing. Any ideas for learning by more? It sounds like what we would call our "Specialist Teachers" (P.E., Library, Dance, Music, Art, and World Languages). Is this particular to FDK?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5147643941953516174.post-7978089835309632102015-01-06T22:21:26.537-08:002015-01-06T22:21:26.537-08:00Do you have an email I can contact you please Trac...Do you have an email I can contact you please Tracy?

I read most of your blogs on FDK and found them very helpful.<br /><br />Thanks!Arjolahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04977811913055601243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5147643941953516174.post-52915146093277151542013-05-27T08:18:30.230-07:002013-05-27T08:18:30.230-07:00I am passionately curious about your FDK program! ...I am passionately curious about your FDK program! <br />I thought this might be a post about your marvellous dance inquiry, but this is also a nice surprise, one I will be sharing widely with other friends who are embarking on the DK journey next year or the last year (like me). This sounds ideal, and it's so often the topic of conversation amongst K teachers when we are in a group, so to hear your school is proactively spelling out what is appropriate: swoon! <br /><br />Jennifer: <br />That book sounds fantastic. Summer reading list just keeps growing!<br /><br />And that last note about grade one readiness... Thank you! I suppose it will take time before that comment is seen as nearsighted. It's up to us to trumpet the successes and skills of our students, but it can be discouraging at times to think of how the play is seen as, well, "just play". The students are so lucky to have you, and the entire team who work with them. Great post, you two!Laurel Fyneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01694746377382643755noreply@blogger.com
