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:

Thanks to everyone for all of the GREAT conversations over the passed few days during "parent-teacher-student conferences".  Mrs. Erhardt and I look forward to working with your son/daughter in the coming months - in helping them "bring out the best possible version of themselves"!

Ask your Gr. 5 son/daughter about their "Division" math test...

Please return the report card envelope (you can keep the actual report card), as well as the Term 1 "portfolio" binder. Thanks in advance!

Have a wonderful weekend!
