End of first week!

Hello families!

We have made it through our first week together.  We are already working on Idaho History, Language, Math, and we began our weekly Reading story today as well!  Due to the long weekend, I did not send any homework home with students today.  (I know they are all sad about that!)  If students do not finish today's work on Tuesday though, I will send it home with them Tuesday night.

I have asked students to bring in something to use as an eraser for their wipe boards.  This could be an old sock, piece of material/towel, etc.  I just don't want us to use up all the tissues before the end of September!  The students will keep this in their desk.

We started working with our Bricks in class today.  I have added a link called "BrickLab" with a few pictures I took of the kids working on their builds.  Today we made printing presses.

Remember, there is not any school on Monday due to Labor Day.  I hope that you all have a safe and fun weekend!

First Day!

Hello families! What a great first day of 4th grade!

We organized our supplies today. If your student is still in need of something, please let me know and  I would be happy to talk with our counselor to assist you anyway I can.

Tonight students have homework. Everyone has a library checkout form to be signed and returned to school in order to check out books next week. Also, a few students have a "Wanted" poster to finish for the hallway bulletin board.

Have a great night and thank you for sending me such great kids to work with this year!
