- what are 2 different ways you could figure out what happens in the 4th and 5th horn blow?
- how could you figure out how many smoke stacks would puff on the 10th blow?

Warm Feet for the Street Campaign

Hi everyone,  I have had some of you ask about the Warm Feet for the Street Campaign that the Ambassador Club students are organizing and that all grade 4 classes are participating in. If you would like to make a donation we would love to take it. We are accepting donations until Dec. 13 so that the students in the Ambassador Club have time to stuff the socks. We have had a generous parent donate approximately 90 pairs of socks so we are needing stuff to put in them. Please click on the link for items the Mustard Seed accepts for this campaign and items they don’t accept. Thank you in advance for your continued support of our initiatives.
