Weekly Update 12-3-19

Hello Everyone,
The next couple of weeks are packed full of activities! The purpose of this email is to highlight these events. Additional emails will be sent out regarding the Flea Market, field trip, and the class party. 

Field Trip: We will be going to the Gerald R Ford Museum on December 16. We will leave school at 9 am and return around 2 pm. Students will need to pack a sack lunch with a drink. Mary has sent out a sign up for parent drivers and chaperones within the next few days. It should be a great trip reinforcing our understanding of the federal government.

Math: We will be completing our quick factors and multiples unit with the assessment on Monday. Take some time this weekend to help your fourth grader study! Next week we get to start Geometry. Students will enjoy this break from the tougher units we have completed since the start of the year. There may be less homework during this unit so I am encouraging students to review multiplication facts and long division if needed. 

Kids Food Basket: The student leadership team is collecting items for KFB. The 4th grade is encouraged to donate fruit strips or boxes of raisins. Items will be collected until December 12.

Winter Party: Our class winter/holiday party will be on December 17 at 12:30 pm. 

Winter Showcase: Our winter/holiday concert is on December 17 at 2 pm. Students are encouraged to wear wintry sweaters with a choice of either winter hats, mittens, or scarves and nice pants for this performance. 

Upcoming Dates:
December 12: EGR High School Holiday Concert at 1 pm. We will be walking to the high school after lunch and return around 2 pm. Keep this in mind if your child has an appointment on this date.
December 13: Flea Market in Wealthy Gym from 12:20 - 2 pm. See the additional email from Mrs. Tinholt.
