Reminders!
Today's Math Homework requires information from on of these two this sites: http://www.scribd.com/doc/36121678/FIFA-2010-World-Cup-South-Africa-Stats or http://www.fifa.com/worldcup/statistics/matches/goals.html. Be sure to make a line plot using at least 8 countries and some kind of data from the sites. Don't forget to give it a title!
Yesterday's Math Homework requires the information from this site (sorry about before this one should work; I won't count the homework against you if you don't get a chance to do it!):
http://www.scribd.com/doc/36094645/La-Ceiba
***Don't Forget that tomorrow, Thursday the 19th is the 5th grade meeting/Open House in the Multipurpose Room at 5:00pm. We will have a meeting with all 5th grade sections first (along with Spanish, Estudios, and the counselor), then go back to our individual classes to deal with parties, wish lists, etc... Refreshments will be provided in room 5C at that time. Specials teachers will be located in the art room from 5 -7pm so make sure you stop in to talk with them as well. We have several new teachers on our staff. We hope that each parent or guardian will be able to make it tomorrow night and we looking forward to seeing you then.
**As a reminder to students who are not bus riders. Parents, drivers, nannies, older and younger siblings, etc.. are to wait in the grassy area in front of the Middle School building to pick up/meet students. This reduces the traffic and the loss of students on the way. Students are required to walk with the teacher or assistant to the designated area and will NOT be permitted to accompany anyone not in the designated area. Please help us keep your student safe and accounted for!
