TCE's Hour of Code
Mystery Location Skype
This week we Skyped with a class from Memphis, TN. We connected with them through our Holiday Card Exchange. We gave them five clues regarding our location and in return they gave us five clues. I was very impressed with the students and their use of map skills!
Gingerbread House Decorating
We will be decorating gingerbread houses this Thursday, December 18th, from 10:45 to 11:45. A permission form and ingredient list was sent home on Monday. Please return the permission form as soon as possible. Students will not be able to participate without a permission form.
Don't forget that all parents are invited to attend! Please indicate on the permission form if you will be attending. We hope you will be able to join us for this fun event!
Icing for Gingerbread Houses
Please remember that each student will need their own container of white icing (any brand) to decorate their gingerbread house. Please write your child's name on the container and send it in as soon as possible! Thank you!
