Fri. October 15 – Thurs. October 21, 2010


4th Grade Homework Sheet

Dear Students and Parents,

Progress Reports will be sent home on Tuesday. Please note that these are not report cards! They are merely a glimpse at the student’s progress up to this point in the trimester. The best way to help your student improve is to please help them complete all of the daily and weekly homework regularly. Also students may take advantage Grade First Aide be making any corrections to tests that are below 75% in homework folders and return them to school by the following Tuesday to receive a 75%. These small steps can make a big difference in a student’s academic performance which will greatly assist their grades. Also note that the grading scale is given by the Diocese and it is more challenging than the standard grading scale used by many public schools. Please be positive about your student’s strengths and areas for growth and use this progress report to encourage your student to grow and improve in the weeks to come. Have a blessed week. Please feel free to contact me through my email @ yschemenauer.ourladyofassumption.ocs@sbdiocese.org,
Also included in this homework folder is the permission slip for the field trip to Mission San Juan Capistrano. Please be sure to fill out the permission slip and return the fees to class by Thursday, November 4, 2010. We can accommodate ten parent chaperones with us for the day. This is a wonderful field trip and the students enjoy it so much. Check the permission slip for all details and information.
Thank you to our parent volunteers for the math-a-thon. The tests and pledge sheets are also included in this homework folder. Finally, we are saying a decade of the rosary daily. Students may bring in their rosaries to use each day as we pray. Thank you so much for all of your support of our classroom and I look forward to a great week!

**Students are taking place in the Scholastic Reading Challenge. We are hoping for all students to read 10 books in the next 5 weeks. This will help to bring books to underprivileged children in the United States. The book markers are to be turned in Thursday, November 11, 2010 with the titles of all books read. Students are to complete an AR comprehension test in class for each book and this will be a large percentage of their 1st quarter reading grade.
Thank you for encouraging your student to give their best effort. 10 books are the goal for 100%! The comprehension scores received on these AR tests will b sent home in the weekly homework folders for your signature! **
