Test When We Return!

The snow is falling, the wind is blowing, and it is freezing. "Mom, I'm bored and don't know what to do." Mr. Tidey to the rescue. STUDY for your test. Your study guide is in your social studies folder. Cut up the squares and make sure you know where the states, provinces, territories, and physical feaures of Canada and the U.S. are located.

"Mom, I forgot my social studies folder at school." Mr. Tidey to the rescue again. Click on the US Game link on the blog. Play the following games: states, rivers, oceans, lakes, and landscapes. Sure, you will learn more than you need to know, but that is better than less than you need to know.

I hope you are all enjoying the snow. Now, study. :)

Mr. Tidey

Last Week for Toys for Tots

This is the last week for Toys for Tots! My Advisory has done an awesome job. So far, they have donated 42 toys and over $40. The students voted today to have Hot Chocolate Days for the remainder of the toy drive. For a 50 cent donation to Toys for Tots each day, they will get a hot chocolate to drink in Advisory class. Keep up the great work Advisory!
