Classroom updates

Here are some quick classroom updates:

*   Our QSP magazine sales wrap up next Wednesday, so get the orders in.  This fundraising helps pay for a lot of great equipment around the school, from SmartBoards to soccer nets, as well as contributing to class trips, so make sure you ask friends and family this long weekend to see if they are interesting in something new to read!

*   Tomorrow is Laps for Lungs.  It is expected that students will bring in a loonie or twonie as a contribution to this worthy cause.

*   Next week, we have District Cross Country on Tuesday for those students that qualified.  Tuesday after school, the Sr Boys will be playing an exhibition soccer match against Clinton PS.  Finally, on Thursday we have  the Regional Soccer tournament in Goderich.  The Juniors will be playing at GPS, and the Seniors will play on the 2 fields at GDCI.

*   For Gr 6, the Classifying Tree Leaves project is due on Wednesday Oct 13.  Also, we need some students to bring in pond water next Tuesday, as we will be using microscopes to look for protists in class next week.

*   Students can now access the class calendar, which will be updated on a regular basis.  They should click on the link to the right of this post, then log in to Google apps, using their full email address (i.e. holstudent20@ed.amdsb.ca) and then their password.  When they get to the Calendar page, they can add a coworker's calendar (about halfway down on the left) by typing in my email, the same way they do when they are sharing.
