Thank you for coming to PIN. It was a pleasure sharing about fourth grade with you. We are fortunate to work with your children each day. If you were unable to attend, the handouts are in your child's Friday folder today.
Convocation today was an energizing and enthusiastic end to our week and official start to our year. All of the student speakers did a wonderful job. MVS is a great place to learn and grow, for students and teachers alike.
Over the course of the last few weeks, we worked together to create our class expectations for the year. They are posted in our room. The class was very serious and thoughtful when coming to agreements about what our expectations should be for the year.
Our reading time this week has focused on reading skills and reading the survival books the students chose. Next week we will begin to focus on the different parts of the report. Classtime will be spent on the report, but work at home may need to happen too, especially as the due date draws near. Students are encouraged not to go ahead and write parts of the report we have not discussed and practiced in class.

During writing time, we have spent several lessons generating writing topics. Our first writing endeavor will be a bio-poem, a poem written about oneself. The students enjoy writing time each day.
As you are aware, the fourth graders will change clothes for PE classes. This officially starts next week. The uniform consists of any color T-shirt/workout shirt or sweatshirt, any color shorts or sweat pants, socks, and gym shoes. Under the important dates section of this blog, you will see PE dates listed. Please help your child with this new responsibility.
Enjoy the cool weather three-day weekend with your family!
