(This letter is going home on Monday with the students to be signed and returned.)
Dear Parents,
The students of Room Echo are nicely getting into our
everyday routine. They are engaged in
the curriculum and already progress is being made. We will be finishing Chapter One in math
which is place values. There will be a
test either Thursday or Friday.
Multiplication facts are part of our everyday routine and 1/3 of the class
has completed their facts up to 12.
I hope your student has been telling you about our Language
Art reading, Tales of a Fourth Grade
Nothing. Students have been working
on a persuasive argument which we will be filming within the week and then posted
on the class website. Please make sure
to take a look of what they are doing.
In science we will be working on the water cycle and
filtration unit where the students will eventually be creating their own water
filter.
A few important upcoming dates: Progress reports will be coming home to you
on Wednesday, September 17th.
Please make sure to ask your student for it. Picture day is this Thursday, September 18th. Both Thursday and Friday will be “no logo
days”.
With our extended school day, I am finding that many of the
students are getting a bit hungry about 3:00.
I would like to institute a voluntary Snack Schedule. For those of you that would like to
participate you will be responsible for providing a snack for each student that
is participating. Only those
students/parents that have agreed to participate in the Snack Schedule will
receive a snack or be scheduled to bring snacks. A parent has volunteered to coordinate the
schedule and will inform you of the appropriate snacks and number of snacks you
will need to bring. I ask that all
parents return the bottom portion of this letter indicating that they are
either interested or not in participating.
At the same time I would like for you to include your email address if
you are not receiving these letters electronically. I would ask that your
student return the form below by Wednesday, Sept. 17th so we can
begin the Snack Schedule next week.
As always please feel free to contact me by email if you
have questions. Make sure you do check
the class website www.schooldaystoday.com, where you will find pictures from “Student
of the Month”, Genius Hour, science, and behind the scene shots of the
persuasive argument commercials.
