Classroom News - Oct. 26

Halloween came early for our 7M class - in the form of a new TV for the classroom!  Ask your son/daughter about it.

Our 7M class will be enjoying some Halloween Festivities this Friday, Oct. 29.  Students are encouraged to dress-up (or wear Halloween colors).  Our school will be providing FREE pizza for our Gr. 7 and Gr. 8 students (compliments of Red Swan Pizza).  Students can also bring some extra individual snacks to enjoy - in addition to the pizza.  Our plan is to enjoy the food, a movie and hopefully have some Phys. Ed time in the gym (to burn off the extra sugars)! 

Homework:
Math - Order of Operations (Wednesday, Oct. 27)
Social - World Map (Wednesday, Oct. 27)
Math - Decimals TEST (Friday, Oct. 29)
Art - Term 1 Sketchbook (Friday, Nov. 5)

Reminders:
- If interested in ordering school pictures, orders are due back to Lifetouch by Friday, Oct. 29.  Picture Retake day is scheduled for Tuesday, Nov. 2.   
- Also, the SCC "Old Dutch Halloween Fundraiser" pickup will be Friday, October 29 (from 3:00 to 5:30 p.m.).
