WELCOME!!!

Hello everyone,

Welcome to Mr. McDowell's Grade 6/7 classroom blog. I am very excited to have a classroom webpage and I hope that you will find it useful. The purpose of this blog is to provide a convenient (and reliable) communication link between students, parents, the school and Mr. McDowell. I invite you to check this blog on a daily basis as I will be posting valuable information about the classroom and the school - including daily homework assignments, important dates, classroom/school news, etc.

If you ever have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact me via phone, email, or this blog:

Classroom News - Dec. 2

Please refer to the 'upcoming events' heading for a very busy December at M.C. Knoll (found at the right side of the blog).

On Friday, Dec. 5, our 6/7M class will have the opportunity to enjoy some physics demonstrations put on by students from YRHS. This should be a lot of fun!

Also, I have attached a Math Games link for both grade 6 + 7 students (found at the right side of the blog). These webpages are extremely useful as students are engaged, have fun, and learn all at the same time!

We finally made the goal to Read to A Billion. Our finally total was 1,078,280,386. Now the kids need to focus on doing the classroom reading on the computer so they can receive a reward...Have A Great Day Mr. McDowell
