Email Communication
Is email a good way for me to communicate with you regarding your child's progress, answer your questions, share classroom news, etc.? If so, I would appreciate if you could send me an email from your preferred email address (if I don't have it already). It will then be added to my contact list and I'll have it on file for future communications. Please email me at: mjones@gulllakecs.org. Thanks!
Holiday Gift Exchange
Students may bring in a small, inexpensive gift item to exchange with each classmate (ex. 25 pencils, erasers, pieces of candy, bookmarks, stickers, etc.) at our Christmas party on Thursday, December 17.
Moodle
Moodle
Have you had a chance to check out our class Moodle site? If not, ask your child to show you how to access the site from our class webpage. Right now there are several extra credit assignments, forums to ask/answer questions and wikis to add facts from current units of study.
Grades Online
A great way to keep updated on your child's academic progress is by regularly checking his/her grades online. To access your child's grades, just click on Term 1 Grades and then type in your child's last name and password. You'll be able to view his/her overall grades, various category grades and assignment scores as well as work that is missing, past due or not done.
Important Dates
Tuesday, December 8 -- Science vocabulary quiz
OFFICE MAX REWARDS
OfficeMax will give our classroom $1 or $3 (depending on the brand) for every qualifying ink/laser cartridge I mail in or bring to the store. If you have any used cartridges that you are getting rid of, please send them in and I will recycle them. This opportunity is a great way to help our class earn dollars for school supplies. Thank you for your help!
