Week of December 7th

Just a few important reminders for this week.

1.  RECORDERS / MUSIC  are needed tomorrow.  I believe?? that the students have to play for their recorder belt.  It is expected that the students are practicing a bit each day during the week.

2.  BOOK ORDERS - Several families have place orders either online or sent in orders to school.  In order to assure they arrive on time before the winter break, all orders need to be placed by the end Tuesday December 8th.  If you are purchasing these for books a gift, please let me know either via email / note and I can get in touch to make arrangements for pick-up. 

3.  HALF-DAY on TUESDAY, December 8th - Students will be dismissed at 12:15 on this day.  Please make sure your child knows if their dismissal procedure will be different.  Remember, all students must have a note / email if their dismissal procedure changes.  Without communication, we have to send your child home the usual way.

4.  HOUR OF CODE During the week of December 7-13, schools across the country are encouraged to try code activities.  This week, our class will be exploring this concept during a designated time.  As I believe it may take a few classes to complete, please ask your child what we explored at the end of this week.   If you are interested in knowing more about the HOUR OF CODE, please visit this site:  https://hourofcode.com/us

5.  REPORT CARDS - The trimester one report card will be sent home on Monday, December 21st.  Monday does begin trimester 2.  We will be moving on to new units in all areas except social studies.  They students are completing a project on THE EAST REGION and need a few more days to complete it.  I am working to find a way to sent their project home via email / googledocs.  More to come!

Please let me know if you have any questions / concerns.
