Students, please share with your parents how to navigate through our 301 In Action blog throughout the school year.  Remember to visit daily  :o)

Students have their Room 301 welcome letter to share with parents.  Please, both parents and students, initial or sign the welcome sheet to indicate that you have both read and understood the information shared.  A letter has been sent home focussing on the use of online tools such as Blogs, Wikis, Google Drive, YouTube & Twitter (@McM_MsT).  Please discuss this letter with your child and return the form before or by Friday September 9th. 

READING: students are reminded to bring a book to school to read, they are also invited to borrow books from our classroom library.  DAILY reading at home is encouraged.  When the school library schedule is created, we will be visiting it regularly to sign out books for enjoyment or research.  The Toronto Public Library is a wonderful place to borrow and sign out books or ebooks. 

Indoor/Outdoor Shoes:  it would be helpful for students to bring in a second pair of shoes to leave at school (in their lockers) to wear during the instructional day.  This minimizes dirt on our classroom floor as we do sit on the floor often; as well as, to ensure safety in the gym during physical activities.
