If you have a question specific to your student please send a private email. Upcoming events are also listed to the right of the monthly posts.
Homework
Math
Students will have math homework every night except the days we take a math test. When I teach a math lesson on Fridays I try to give them enough time in class to finish their homework.
Spelling and Reading
Students have a month to complete their reading and spelling homework. Both are due on September 30th. They must turn work in with their spelling contract. They will not have a reading contract during the months they do a book report.

The fourth grade will be exploring metric measurement through 5 different centers. They will be measuring distance, volume, and mass.
