Newsletter - September 20th



Dear Parents,
Where did the week go?  I’ve enjoyed working with your child and celebrating their success with them.  They are the reason why I love my job!

In fourth grade we work hard to help students become responsible, self-motivated learners.  Hopefully, your child is coming home excited about his/her learning, giving you a window into our classroom.  We work hard in our teams, as partners, and individually to learn in many different ways.  And, of course, we take time to celebrate with each other along the way.  As September (and our Character word: responsibility) come to an end, here is just a quick reminder of things students should be doing as responsible fourth graders.
      
~ correct any missed problems on Morning Work every night 
~ read out loud at least 15 minutes, 4 nights a week and fill out their own Reading Log
~ return your Friday Folder Signature Sheet on Monday
~ go over their Assignment Book with you (This is a chance for them to show off all they’re learning!  Trust me, you’ll be amazed!)

Together, we can make this one of the most successful years ever!
Working Together,
Ms. Tammy Myers
Fourth Grade Teacher
