As
the seasons change we are seeing changes in our 4th graders! They
are getting more comfortable with their new teacher and the new demands of 4th
grade. We are seeing improvements in writing, math, and reading! They are
becoming independent thinkers with each passing day! I am proud of the growth
each student is making and can’t wait to see where this year takes us!
School picture day is Wednesday,
October 7th. Money can be sent that day or you can order pictures
online. There will be a retake day scheduled, but we do not have that date yet.
Thursday, October 8th, is
the Symphony field trip. We will eat lunch a little earlier on Thursday because
the buses will leave at 12:20. Only children who returned the permission slip
and the $6.50 will be attending. All other students will remain at Lindbergh. J
I cannot express to you how important
it is for you to read WITH your child each evening. Students need to be held
accountable for reading the words correctly, re-reading when they make a
mistake, and discussing their reading. These are the only ways to improve
reading! Please listen to them read, help them correct mistakes and/or tell
them unknown words, and talk to them about the book. They love to share their
thinking! This will make signing the weekly reading log easy too, because you
know your child really read!
Included in the Friday folder is your
childs conference day and time. Teachers worked together to schedule
conferences that are close in time for those of you with more than 1 kiddo. I
tired to schedule everyone as closely to the time you signed up for as I could.
I look forward to seeing you in a couple weeks!
Thank you for all that you
do! Enjoy your weekend!
