Hello Fourth Grade Families,
I hope you're enjoying all of the delightful SNOW we've received this week! It has been a fun week of navigating all of the new gear we now require to go outside for recess. Your child is welcome to leave his/her snow pants in their locker during the week. I will do my best to remind them to take them home on Friday to wash. It might be helpful to keep an extra hat, pair of socks, and pair of gloves into your child's backpack if there is an especially wet recess. Being comfortable and warm helps learners to do their best! The temperature in our classroom varies from too warm to too cold throughout the day. Some kids have benefited from bringing a sweatshirt to keep in their locker to help with the fluctuation.
I will be submitting the November book order on Friday afternoon. Please place your order before then! Our class code is HB4N7. Access the digital flyer here.
We celebrated Veteran's Day on Monday with a beautiful assembly. Thank you to all relatives of our students for your service.
I will send a separate communication very soon about Kids Food Basket donations!
If you ordered a wreath from the fourth grade sale, orders will arrive on Monday, November 25th. The wreaths will be delivered behind Pioneer Auditorium. You can park or pull up near the curb to pick up your order. We will hang around until close to 4 pm to allow time for everyone to pick up. The wreaths are freshly made, but will need to be taken out of their cardboard boxes as soon as possible to look their best.
The Flea Market is coming soon! Join us in the gym on December 13th from 12:30-2:30 to shop from our amazing vendors. Your fourth grader should have turned in his/her plan to Mrs. Tinholt and should soon begin preparations for this fun event. If you have not had the pleasure of attending in the past, you do not want to miss this!
We will be wrapping up our division unit this week and reviewing Friday and Monday. Our plan is to take the Chapter 4 assessment on Tuesday. Please take some time over the weekend to go over the study guide (coming home Friday) with your student. This is a challenging test, but we are ready!
We have been researching natural disasters in teams during reading workshop. Students are working with their groups to create a poster to teach about their topics. The students have done a great job researching and have learned SO MUCH! They are truly becoming experts. We will be presenting these to the class on Friday.
