Teacher Shout Outs Mrs. Huber -Teacher of the Month -

Mrs. Huber- 

-I think Mrs. Huber should be the Staff Member of the month because it is her first year teaching at Bismarck and she is doing amazing. She explains the subject very precisely and is easy to understand . For each lesson we do an experiment that explains how things work. For our notebooks she tells us what to write down and put in our work sheets that we glue down. She is organized and such a kind sweet teacher to us all. 

-I nominate Mrs. Huber because she always makes sure we know everything and makes class fun each day. Her fun activities help me understand all the information. She goes above and beyond for each of her classes each day. 

-Mrs. Huber always makes the class fun and creative. It’s not like she only has fun though, she is also really good at teaching and helps me get things stuck in my mind. She engages with my science related interests and is overall a fun person, when speaking to others in my class, most agree that she is the best of seventh grade. I think these are enough to grant her staff member of the month. 

There will be a student council meeting on Wednesday, November 5th in Mrs. Dale's room after school until 3:15. 

U of I game (November 18th) - Permission Slips due by Nov. 7th- Bring a sack lunch, in a disposable bag, if you need one please let your teacher know ahead of time. No cell phones allowed. U of I is cashless if you plan on purchasing anything.
