Our Art!

Look at our art that Miss Aeschilman has displayed for us! It is on the bulletin board that leads to the lunchroom. If you come by Lindbergh, check it out in person!

Fall is upon us...

Dear Families,
         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!
         Thursday, October 6th, is the Symphony field trip. We will eat lunch a little earlier on Thursday because the buses will leave around 12:15. Only children who returned the permission slip and the money 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 tried 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!

Reading Strategies

Students worked in pairs to compare and contrast floods in a text titled, Rising Waters. Students are required to identify and label text evidence that supports his/her thinking. Using reading strategies is an expectation all day long. We are getting better each day!
