Our First Week!

Whew, the first week flew by! What a great group of fourth graders! I'm a lucky teacher! We got settled in and are now familiar with daily schedules and routines. "Mission Impossible" started us off and gave us the opportunity to get to know each other. There were some baseline assessments in math and writing.  We read stories from several different genres. Ask your fourth grader to share. They are so excited to get started on their reading logs. I love it! We will begin homework on Sept. 24 after we have a chance to chat at Open House Wed., Sept. 23rd from 6-7. Thank you for getting all the paperwork back!

Be sure to ask about The Fish Philosophy.
