Wednesday Cultural Day

Dear parents,
On Wednesday January 14, we would like to allow students to experience the different cultures around the world. Students can come to school all dressed up, bring a dish, and/or artifact to share with the class. This will be a fun and learning experience. We will be joining other classes too.  Hope to see everyone dressed and ready to share!

This is optional, it is not mandatory that students participate. But, it will be a great experience for all.

I hope the time off so far has been restful and enjoyable. Please ensure that students are logging on to myon each day along with xtramath. Students should also still be reading books from their book bag and utilizing their math bags.  Students were also sent home with a winter break packet that needs to be completed by the end of the break.  The math unit 4 study guide was also sent home. We have worked on the study guide in class and will continue to do so when students return.
