Wednesday, November 5th

Just a few reminders for tonight...

  • Number One uniform for the Symphony trip tomorrow morning. We will leave at 9 am, so there is no need to come early.
  • There is a Problem Solving assessment in math class today, so students have one extra day of grace if they have not completed their math homework! It is so, so important to be practicing at home in preparation for the upcoming test.
  • As it gets colder, please remember to wear track suit bottoms and tops when in P.E. strip. Please label these items with your name to help decrease confusion!
  • Coming home tonight is a fun skeleton to build at home! These pieces look best when they are attached in a way that allows movement (so attaching the pieces with pipe cleaner, string or thumb tacks). Making this fun craft together will be a great way to reinforce the vocabulary of this unit, and will be a valuable hands-on resource for home review. In class we are discussing the function of some key bones...What does your skull protect? What does your spine protect? What does your rib cage protect? Food for thought....

Enjoy your night, and I am really excited for the symphony trip in the morning!

If we are to attain real peace in this world, and if we are to carry on a war against war, we will have to begin with the children.
