Weekend News 9-12-18

Happy Weekend!
I hope you all had a nice week! We have been busy getting ready to show you all of the hard work we've been up to in fourth grade. I look forward to meeting with you all during conferences on the 18th and 23rd! 

Hopefully your child has shown you the forms for our wreath sale. Orders are due October 25th! All funds raised go towards our Mackinac Island trip in June!

Congratulations to our Variety Show cast and crew members. We were so proud to see you up on stage!

There will be No School on October 26th.

This week in fourth grade:

  • We finished our first Reading Workshop unit (realistic fiction) and had a celebration! Our book from this unit, The Tiger Rising featured Rob, a boy who liked to whittle as a way to reduce stress. We celebrated by whittling our own creations out of Ivory Soap to channel our inner Rob. Your student is bringing home their creation today!
  • We did our second Kids Have Rights lesson about safe adults. Talk to your child about who they have selected as a safe adult.
  • We took our Chapter 2 math assessment and the class ROCKED it! Woo hoo!! Thank you for all of the work you're doing at home to help support your student in math!
Have a wonderful weekend, stay warm!
