Goal for the Week: Turn in my Walk-a-Thon Envelope, wear purple on Thursday, and
have fun walking!
Announcements:
Walkathon: is tomorrow (Thursday)! Fourth graders wear purple … the color of royalty! Pull
out your crowns, tiaras, and princess hats! Dress your 4th grader
head-to-toe in PURPLE!!
Walkathon Envelopes: were due Tuesday, October 2nd. Please return all envelopes ASAP whether or not
students participated in fundraising.
“Gravy Group” Challenge Contract: “Gravy Group” is the optional
challenge track for students who are ready and responsible enough to extend
their fourth grade learning. Gravy Group Challenge Contracts will be coming home in
students’ Friday Take-Home folders this week. Please discuss this with your student to decide if Gravy Group
is a good fit for your student! Signed
contracts must be returned to start Gravy Group participation, but can be
returned at any point in the year as long as there are at least 5 Gravy Group
projects remaining.
This Week:
We’re completing and
testing on math Topic 2 Adding and Subtracting Whole Numbers, starting math
Topic 3 Multiplication Meanings and Facts, getting October Mystery books approved,
writing narratives about the Titanic, completing our Underwater art projects, reading
a mysterious story called The Stranger, and having a fabulously ROYAL PURPLE
time at the Walk-a-thon on Thursday!
With thanks,
