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 - Nov. 4

As Term 1 is quickly coming to an end, ALL Term 1 upcoming and OVERDUE assignments are due Monday, Nov. 8.  Those students who fail to meet this deadline may earn an "Insufficient Evidence" (IE) on their report card.

I have reminded students that "being prepared for class" is important to their learning success.  This preparation includes having school supplies readily available.  Please talk to your son/daughter about what school supplies they NEED - as some students do not have pencils, paper, calculator, headphones, binders, water bottle, indoor shoes, etc.

Homework:
Math - Converting Fractions/Decimals (Friday, Nov. 5)
Art - Term 1 Sketchbook (Friday, Nov. 5)
ELA - Google Slides Book Report (Friday, Nov. 5)
ELA - Before/During/After Reading #4 (Friday, Nov. 5)
Art - Caricature (Monday, Nov. 8)

Reminders:
- The November Adventure Ed. Permission Form was sent home earlier in the week.  Please sign and return the form ASAP. 
- I will now include this daily blog message through the Edsby App.  If you prefer, you can "unsubscribe" to my daily messages sent via email - and just receive the message through Edsby.  For those families who are not registered yet for Edsby, please contact the school ASAP.
