any important papers

Students can expect to have math homework every day. They are given time during class to work on it, however they may not finish all of it.
There will be no Reading Log this year. I do strongly encourage students to read every night though. Please make sure that your child is reading at home.

7. Homework

Students will bring home word sorts every Monday. Please use them to practice in the following ways:

8. Homework
Each afternoon students will write down their homework on their homework sheets in their HERO Binders.
Once they’ve completed their homework at home, please sign their sheet.

9. Notebooks
We will be using notebooks for Reading, Math, Science, and Social Studies.
In these, we keep notes on what we’re learning. They are a great tool and should be utilized at home for homework and studying for tests.

10. 30 Book Challenge
In fourth grade I want one of our focuses to be reading for pleasure in the hopes it will foster a love of reading. Therefore, I am challenging each student to read 30 books this year. We will discuss the different genres and I will require them to read a certain number of each. I am putting aside 15 minutes Monday-Thursday for students to read. Between those minutes and time reading at home, I am confident that the challenge will be met! By giving children time to read both at school and at home, we can work together to provide a literature-rich environment and life-long love of reading.

11. Parent Communication

I will be using remind.com to text parents reminders of tests, upcoming assignments, and other class happenings.
