Welcome to Fourth Grade: Week of Oct. 12th-16th

Week of Oct. 12th-16th

There will be no school on Monday, October 12th in observance of Columbus Day.

P.S. Science will begin Wednesday, October 14th. This is an afterschool program that will take place every Wednesday from 2:00-3:30 p.m. Please return the permission slip if you would like your child to attend.

The class had their first PERFECT free dress day. Let's continue getting to school on time! Way to go fourth grade!

HOMEWORK

Students need to read for 30 minutes each night, including weekends, and keep track of what they are reading in their school agendas. Students will take AR (Accelerated Reader) tests during our silent reading time at school on these books. Their participation in the AR program will count as a grade for Reading.

Homework is given every Monday-Thursday and occasionally on Friday. The homework usually consists of a Spelling and Math workbook assignment to help reinforce what was taught earlier in the school day. Additional assignments may also be assigned from Reading, Language Arts, Social Studies, Science, or Religion.

We will have weekly Spelling and Reading tests on Fridays. For all other subjects, I let students know at least a week in advance when there will be a test. At times, there may be pop quizzes. Students are allowed to take home their textbooks at any time to review or study as long as they are brought back the following school day.

The students write down all homework assignments and upcoming tests in their agendas. Agendas are to be signed nightly by a parent or guardian.
