WELCOME!!!

Hello everyone,

Welcome to Mr. McDowell's classroom blog. I am very excited to have a classroom webpage and I hope that you will find it useful. The purpose of this blog is to provide a convenient (and reliable) communication link between students, parents, the school and Mr. McDowell. I invite you to check this blog on a daily basis as I will be posting valuable information about the classroom and the school - including daily homework assignments, important dates, classroom/school news, etc.

For your convenience, you can also sign-up to receive "daily updates" from this blog that automatically gets sent to your email every day there is a new posting. Simply type in your email address into the 'submit' box found on the right side of this blog.

More importantly, if you ever have any questions or concerns about your son/ daughter, please do not hesitate to contact me via phone, email, or this blog:

Classroom News - Sept. 15

Our 5/6ME students have officially started into most of their curriculum - Math, ELA, Science, Social, etc.  Ask your son/daughter about the "start-up"...

Homework:
Math 6 - Getting Started (Canada Populations) (Wednesday, Sept. 16)

Reminders:
- A message from the GSSD: 

GSSD is promoting the use of EDSBY for all schools. This new platform will allow us to communicate with families from the office, from individual teachers, keep an updated parent calendar, etc. It will also mean that there is one platform across the division. As with all large tech. roll-outs, we need some time to make sure it is working properly for families. We should be able to access EDSBY in October and will make sure we send updates in advance to help our families get signed- up. Thank you for your patience and, in the meantime, feel free to email your child’s teacher, text or call the school phone, or call the office.
