Cycle 3 Week 5 Midweek Minute

Good afternoon,

We have resumed our study of economics in Social World. This week, students participated in a simulation activity illustrating supply and demand through bartering and explored marginal costs and benefits as well as the evolution of globalization and the positive and negative impacts of our economically interconnected world.

Important Dates and Reminders

Friday, April 10 — Bingo Night

Thank you to those who have reached out about scheduling needs for Friday’s Bingo Night. As a reminder, students will stay after school and begin set-up at 4:00 PM and will stay through clean-up (the event ends at 8:00PM so we hope to be finished cleaning up no later than 9:00PM). We will provide a pizza dinner for the students.  Parent volunteers to help with clean-up would be greatly appreciated. 

The following students have volunteered to bring food or supplies for our Kids’ Corner:

Jahna (Parfaits)
