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 - Oct. 21

Our grade 5 students were given an "optional" extension task in Science - the Lung Capacity LAB.  This activity can be done with the entire family!

Also, the grade 6 students were given their Math "Factors and Multiples" test scores today.  Please go through the test with your son/daughter, sign and return it ASAP.

Mrs. Erhardt and I thought to share our Lunch Hour Expectations with everyone.  This was co-created with all of the students.


There was nothing added to the Google Classroom today - as EVERYONE was at school today!

Homework:
Social 6 - Latitude/Longitude Grid (OVERDUE)
Math 6 - Rounding Numbers (Thursday, Oct 22)
Science 6 - Electricity Timeline (Friday, Oct. 23)
Math 5 - Multiplication TEST (Friday, Oct. 23)

Reminders:
- Some new Knowledgehook Math Missions were uploaded last week.  Check them out...
- I sent home some Scholastic Book Order information last week - including an introductory letter and x2 pamphlets.  New this year: your order will now ship to your home and you can order online at scholastic.ca/clubshop.  If interested in ordering, please use our class code RC178758.
