Please remember to sign agendas daily!
Part of our daily routine includes agendas to be submitted on my desk each morning, with parent initials at the bottom the message. If you child brings in his or her agenda every day of the week, with your initials on it, this helps them earn an extra sticker for their weekly goal chart. The reason I am asking parents to sign agendas daily is to ensure important messages are reaching you at home! Thanks in advance for helping our classroom run smoothly. Thanks :)

Building an Electrical Powered Device:
The next unit of study in science will be "Building an Electrical Powered Device", which combines concepts learnt in our last unit and allows students the opportunity to develop and enhance their problem solving skills. With this, the project we are going forward with is Building Electrical Powered Vehicles! We understand there is a cost associated with this project because each student will get to keep the materials used for their vehicle when final construction is complete (motor, gears, wires, battery, battery holder, wheels, etc.). The school has paid for a portion of the cost of these materials, and we are asking the families to pay the remaining 50 dhs.
This is not the only option available! The school has materials such as wire, light bulbs, switches, and batteries that any student can use for construction of another project. If this is the preferable option, the student will need to present an alternate project to the teacher for approval by Monday, January 21st. Please email Ms. Shannon if you have any questions or concerns! Thanks :)

Note about Pakistan Welfare school
Reminder: The gifts for the students attending PCWS are due Wednesday, November 28 2012. The students who attend the Pakistan Welfare Community school located in Mussafah Abu Dhabi are the children of workers who cannot afford school fees or many of the other privileges our students at CIS receive. This gift drive allows us to support people in our own community. We recognize that there is another fundraiser going on at CIS, and we apologize for the timing. However, this is the 4th year CIS has been a part of this gift drive and we hope to continue to make it a success.
Thank you to everyone who already gave us gifts for the kids! Finally, remember, your gift will give you 1 house point for your house team, and 300 points if your whole team brings a gift!
Thanks, Me-To-We team.

Spelling list
Since this is a short week, rather than learning a new list 10 words and writing sentences and definitions for each, we are doing something different! On Tuesday, September 23rd a spelling test will be given that reviews the words already learned this year. Of the 30 words all students have learned this year, 10 words will be selected. To study, please review all 30 words because you do not know which 10 will be picked!
