Welcome Back!

(click picture to enlarge)

This week I started "Book In A Bag". Your child was given a ziploc bag with a introduction letter, reading chart, and two books. The books are fourth grade reading material. I know I have students who are not reading fourth grade material. Whether they are below or above I am working on fluency and being able to complete the readfing materials on a fourth grade level. If your child needs help reading the two books in their bag, please help. Ask questions along the way to check for comprehension. The student, teacher, and parent, if you will do the "Book In A Bag" program, will see great improvement in your child before the end of the school year. Please help me out in trying to help your child be successful!

There are only two dates left for your student to receive "Dragon Slayer" or "Keys To The Kingdom". The first one will be this Friday, January 27th and the final one February 17th. If your child has not completed their multiplication facts please encourage them to do so. I have some students who have asked me if I will test them an extra time during recess time or during the morning when time permits. I have been willing to do this so all students who want to try their best to complete the multiplication facts are given the opportunity to do so.

Thanks for sharing your children with me on the learning path to excellence!

We are off and running in 4th grade! All of the students are trying their best and working hard. We have been learning how to write a Six Sentence Summary both last week and this week. This is very important to learn how to do. Math is another big concept this year. Mastering the multiplication facts is a must and needs to be taken care of by the time we come back on track in October. The  reason behind this is the math for the rest of the year deals with multiplication and division, besides addition and subtratction. Please help your child learn these using the "Ogre" game your child brought home from school. Playing games/activities is a great way to learn!!!!!!

If you wish to contact me through email please make a note of the following email address. I don't use the school one since I cannot get onto the school web server when I am at home due to the distance I live from the school. My email address is:  thesupercrafter@gmail.com

Thanks for helping your child get off to a wonderful start to 4th grade!
