September 3rd - 6th, 2013

Picking a "Just Right" Book

What can we do to make sure that we grow as readers? How do we know if the books that we are reading are the best for our level? Mrs. Nisely and Mrs. Atkins recommend using the following methods for choosing the best books for you!


Thursday, August 29th was our school wide cookie dough kick off! What a fantastic fundraiser this has been for our school! Keep selling those cookies.

Monday, September 2, Labor Day, no school.

September 11th, individual picture retakes.

Early Release Day:  September 27th, dismissal, 1:00.

Parent Teacher Conferences, Wednesday, October 16th, Thursday, October 17th.

Students are working on getting their class work and homework in on time. Students are responsible for bringing a late assignment note home for any missing work. This is a fourth grade expectation and a sign of responsibility.


Homework Due:  Friday, September 6th, 2013.

a.  Look for a meaningful object or photo to bring and share.

b.  Write a paragraph describing a special time spent with a friend.

c.  Please go to the link below and play Meteor Multiplication. I worked through all six sates and final score was 23 math meteors in one minute.  See if you can beat me!? If you complete all six stages there will be an opportunity for your to print out a completion certificate. Print out the certificate and bring it to me by Friday and I'll pay you 5 paws!
