Classroom News - Mar. 3

Sorry about not putting a post together yesterday - I was at Yorkdale coaching the grade 6 girls in floor hockey. Busy, busy, busy!

Reminders:
- Please bring $2 for the "Habitat" birdhouses that we will be painting (they will be yours to keep).
- I think everyone is once again ready for our rescheduled grade 6-8 ski trip to the Asessippi Ski Area tomorrow (Wednesday, Mar. 4). The departure time is at 7:30 a.m. - do not be late. Also, we are expected to arrive back in Yorkton at about 4:30 p.m. Be sure to be "overprepared" than "underprepared"!

For Homework:
Social - Pacific Rim Country Reports (redo) (overdue Monday, Mar. 2)
LA 6 - "Anastasia on the Job" questions and definitions (overdue Tuesday, Mar. 3)
Art - Theme project drawing (due Friday, Mar. 6)
