It's in the Bag!

This week a packet came home with details about our Character Report Project.

Your student has picked out a favorite character from a book.  We have worked all week on discussing and analyzing those characters.  The papers that came home this week would be great helps for their project.

This project is to be completed at home and will be presented to the class this coming Friday, April 27th.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to email me!

(this report is only for students who are in our classroom for our morning reading/daily 5 rounds)

Morning Drop Off


Please remember that students should be dropped off in the parent parking lot area adjacent to the gymnasium. We have seen an increased number of students being dropped off in either the bus lanes or the staff parking lot. Both of these scenarios can lead to students being placed in harm's way. Please help us keep our students safe by dropping them off in the proper area.

Homework
In 4th grade, your kiddos will have a lot more homework than they do right now.  In order to prepare a bit for that, we will begin having more things sent home during the week that need to be completed.  Check for a big HW to be in the corner of the papers for work that needs to be completed and returned.  

Weekly homework will continue to come home in Monday's Communication Folders.  This homework is due back by Friday to receive a red ticket.  Students then have until the following Monday to turn it in before missing recess to complete it.  

Typing Camp
Starting next Monday, we will be spending some time in the Computer Lab going to Typing Camp.  It is easier to learn proper typing when we have a lot of time to practice!
