Last Chance: Book your Parent/Teacher Conference Appointment

A reminder to everyone that Parent Teacher Conferences are this Thursday evening, October 6th, and Friday October 7th.

Please note that in order to prepare for conferences, Thursday is an EARLY DISMISSAL day this week.

How to book your conferences

There are 3 ways you can book your conferences:

  • Online, via your CBE Account (link)
  • email me, and I will respond with some available times.
  • you can also book appointments over the phone by calling the school and speaking with me, or the office.
Kindly note that my available appointments remaining are
  • Thursday, October 6th, between 4:00 PM and 5:30 PM
  • Thursday, October 6th, between 6:30 PM and 8:00 PM
  • Friday, October 7th, between 10:30 AM and 1:00 PM
It is my hope to meet all of my students' parents and families. If none of these times work, I am happy to set something up on a different day, just let me know.

I look forward to seeing you soon!!

-Mr. Smith

What is Society?

This week, we learned about what makes up a society. As a class, we decided that all societies have certain categories of things that makes them distinct. Then, working in pairs, we identified lists of things in each category that goes together to make up a society.

The mindmap below shows the result. Start a discussion by asking your child if they see any ways that the items in different colors are connected.



























After we examined how some things in the different colors are connected to each other, the class came up with this definition for society:

Society is a system of living people and nature, in the same place, working together to keep each other safe, and healthy.
