Classroom News - Dec. 10

Great job to all of the band students at yesterday's performance.  It received great reviews!

Speaking of performances, the annual MC Knoll Christmas Concert is scheduled for tomorrow (Wednesday, Dec. 11).  Our "non-band" students in Gr. 5/6ME and 6KN will be performing a wonderful dance piece!  Come on out to enjoy some great entertainment - 1:00 p.m. and 7:00 p.m.

Here is a message from Mrs. Erhardt:
- Marble Jar Party - Thursday afternoon
- We will be watching Holes, a book I have been reading aloud in ELA.
- Students may wear pajamas, bring snacks and a blanket or pillow for themselves, and are asked to bring a mug for hot chocolate. This is a reward for lots of "marbelous" behaviour in the classroom.

8 school days until winter holidays!

Homework:

Social 5 - Migration Story Brainstorming (OVERDUE)
Social 6 - Physical Region of Canada (OVERDUE)

Math 5 - Writing Decimals in Different Ways (x2) (Wednesday, Dec. 11)
Math 6 - Division of Decimals (x2) (Wednesday, Dec. 11)
Dance - Xmas Concert Dance (Wednesday, Dec. 11)
Math 6 - Multiplication/Division of Decimals TEST (Thursday, Dec. 12)

Reminders:

- For the next few weeks, students are asked to bring appropriate outdoor clothing and a toboggan during our Phys. Ed. classes.

The following people have OVERDUE assignments:
 - LB            - AC
