Research Cards Research Cards in in Action: Action: Organizing Ideas Organizing Ideas and and Evidence Evidence As we continue to develop our research skills, we used index cards to organize our ideas, key facts, and evidence from our credible sources. We wrote one idea or fact per card, then sorted and grouped them to see patterns and connections.

Moving the cards around helped us plan our paragraphs, clarify our thinking, and create a clear, organized draft for our project.

Professional Development Day 2025-2026 At Modern American School, the Professional Development Day inspired educators to reflect on ways to enrich teaching and empower student learning.

Empowering Voices – Self and Peer Assessment for Deeper Learning explored how AI-supported assessment and clear rubrics help students understand expectations and take ownership of their progress. Building Critical Minds focused on strategies for teaching critical thinking through evidence-based reasoning and argumentation. Finally, Speak to Shine! Mastering Communication and Presentation Skills highlighted ways to strengthen students’ speaking and presentation abilities while building confidence.

Together, these sessions reflected MAS’s commitment to reflective teaching, student agency, and strong thinking and communication skills.

Students discovered how theater is used in public protests by designing their own short “protest-style” moment using: slogan, posters, movements and chorus. Elevating students’ understanding and use of different techniques helps them master the skills they need to enhance their performance.

The Modern American School Math Department recently turned PI Day into a full-scale celebration! Our middle schoolers analyzed the first 100 digits of Pi, graphing their frequency to discover which number appeared most often. The excitement leveled up with the "Bulls-Pi" challenge, where students stood 30 cm back and flipped pennies 10 times to aim for scoring rings worth 1, 2, or 3.14 points. It was a day of data-driven fun where every decimal counted toward a "bulls-pi" victory!
