Back to School 2024-2025
Welcome to the 2024-2025 school year with Cowlishaw Project Arrow!
I'm Mr. Cook, the PA teacher at Cowlishaw.
Project Arrow begins for grades 3 through 5 on Monday, Aug. 26, 2023 — and I am excited to see all PA scholars.
Supplies
In addition to your normal school supplies, there are a few additional items that are required of PA students that will help us in our daily activities and teach our students the value of responsibility and preparedness.
I've supplied Amazon links below for your convenience only. You do not have to buy these exact items or buy from Amazon.
If you are unable to supply these items, your student will be provided with supplies from our limited classroom supply.
Three Ring Binder
In PA, we will use a three-ring binder to help take notes and organize materials. This will be particularly useful for our project-based learning approach.
Please supply a three-ring binder (1 inch or larger, preferably).
It does not need to be brand new or a specific color or style.
Please fill the binder with wide rule three-hole-punched notebook paper if possible.
The link below is a suggested item from Amazon.
Tab Dividers
It would also be helpful if you could supply a five-tab letter index divider set.
Any brand is fine. The colors of the tabs do not matter. You can use ones with the slide-in tab inserts or ones you write directly on the tab.
Please do not label tabs. We will label them in class together.
The link below is a suggested item from Amazon.
PA Library
The Cowlishaw Project Arrow library will be opening soon! There are over 1,000 titles in the library.
Before students can check out books, please review the library guidelines and complete the permission form below. Please note that even if you completed this form last year, you will need to complete it again. If you have more than one student in PA, please complete a separate form for each one.
Here's to a great year!
Thank you in advance for your cooperation and support.
If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact me using the information below.
I eagerly look forward to seeing everyone and a fantastic year in PA!
Thanks again,
Mr. Cook
