Classroom News - Jan. 27

Happy Monday!

As we have finally reached the epic conclusion of "The Mouse and the Motorcycle", you are invited to attend a movie viewing experience of the novel tonight (Monday, Jan. 27) at MC Knoll at 6:30 pm. Bring snacks and something to sit on.

Ask your son/daughter about the "integer" math test and P.A.A.

If the weather allows, we will try to be outside building quinzees for tomorrow's (Tuesday, Jan. 28) Adventure Ed. class.  Students will need appropriate outdoor clothing and shovels.  If the weather is not cooperating, we will most likely be inside - appropriate indoor gym clothing would be needed.
