Winter Break

There is NO SCHOOL December 22-January 2.  School resumes January 5!  Have a great break!

Gourdfest!!

The morning of October 31, fourth grade will be having our annual Gourdfest in our classrooms!  This involves math/science based activities, followed by a gourd decorating contest.  We are in need of some items for this special event, and are hoping you can help!  If you are able to donate any of the following items to your child's class, we would greatly appreciate it:  gourds (we need 30 per class), tacky glue, googly eyes, pipe cleaners, feathers, stickers,  beads, and any other craft supplies that can be used to decorate the gourds.  Please send any donations in with your child.  Again, thank you so much for your help!  

Reading Calendars

In fourth grade, students are expected to read 400 minutes each month as part of their Reading grade.  Students will keep track on their Reading Calendar, which is sent home each month.  Make sure to keep it in a safe place!  If you need another copy, you can print one by clicking the link below! :)  At the end of the month, please make sure to total your minutes, sign the bottom, then have a parent sign to verify that the information on the calendar is correct.  The Reading Calendar is due on the first school day of the following month, so your October calendar is due Monday, November 3!
