Today we had a nice surprise, as the grade 7/8 class put on a multicultural fair.  Students learned about a number of different countries around the world and were able to compare cultural differences.  It's a big world out there!

Note home - on the Creemore Children's Festival on July 16th.

Social Studies Grade 4 - the Social Studies teacher has asked that anyone interested in taking their castle project home to please do so by the end of the day Friday.  There were a lot of really well done projects.

In math, we have been working on adding and subtracting decimals to the hundredths place.  Here are some follow up sites:

Hundredths Quiz

Add and Subtract Hundredths Quiz

Modelling Decimal Hundredths

Decimals

Decimal Detective Game  (Pick Rookie or Cargo for decimals to the tenths place)

Tomorrow (Thurs.) is our Jump Rope for Heart fundraiser for the Heart and Stroke Foundation.  The event starts at 1:40, so hopefully the rain will be done by then.  Students should bring appropriate footwear and clothes to exercise in, as well as sunscreen and a water bottle.  Also, one of the activities may involve them getting wet, so a change of clothes is a good idea.

Have a good night.
