I’m looking forward to seeing everyone on Wednesday night for Curriculum night! We’re starting to get into the swing of things in 4th grade, and I’m excited to share important information with you about helping your student get the most out of the 4th grade adventure!
Goal for the Week: Line up quickly and quietly.
Announcements:
Wednesday
evening Curriculum Night: In 45 minutes or less, I will attempt to give
you an idea of what we do for 10 months in 4th grade and how we go about doing
it! The weather forecast shows more warm weather ahead and our classroom
is usually pretty toasty. You’ve been warned! : )
Walk to
Math: Please read the letter (attached
to this week’s email or in the document section of
our website) regarding our new 4th grade “Walk to Math” program beginning
on Thursday.
Volunteer Training:
is scheduled for September 25th: 8:30 –
9:30am and 1:50 – 2:50 pm. This training is for all volunteers who are new to
the school or folks who need a review. Please call 831-4100 to sign up
for a training session or stop by the Main Office. If you have already
gone through training and a background check, you are all set to volunteer for
this year with no further training. We love our volunteers!
This Week:
We’re taking our first
math topic test (and re-test opportunity), starting walk-to-math with Topic 2 (Adding
and Subtracting Whole Numbers), completing our Akiak reading projects, practicing
tricky words (homonyms!) in spelling, investigating energy in science, continuing
to talk about good sentences, and starting reading buddies!
With thanks,
Emily Larson
