Dear Parents,
Where
did this week go? I am so looking forward to a full five days next week
with this amazing group of students. I know that I’ve said this before,
but I really do LOVE each and every moment with these kids. Thank you for
allowing me to spend each day with your child.
In
the classroom we’ve been talking about what we can do to show each other
respect and how to be team players. We’ve discussed the fact that this
year we’ll see each other more than we see our family! We’re committed to
providing a safe, accepting learning environment for each and every
student. I’m proud of our class for being mature enough to openly and
honestly communicate with each other to solve our problems together. J
Please
make sure to look for your child’s Friday Folder signature sheet because I
wrote down your child’s SRI score. This is the reading test they take in
the computer lab. The normal range for fourth grade is 600-900.
Please check the score and compare it with where they are supposed to be.
Speaking of reading, check
out this illustration, and you will see why reading is SO important. This
amazes me! I know that it is hard to make sure that reading happens in
the evening because life is so busy, but it is so important for your child’s
success!
I
am sure you noticed the oversized envelope that went home last Friday. We
are doing a donation drive so that money that comes back to the school will
directly benefit our students. Ask your child about some fun incentives
the school is offering.

Have
you joined PTA? We’re having a class membership contest and the class with the
most memberships for each grade level will win an extra recess and a snow-cone
party!
Have
a wonderful weekend. Enjoy the beautiful sunshine!
