4th Grade Homework Sheet
Dear Students and Parents,
Welcome to Catholic Schools Week! Please refer to the flyer that was sent home regarding specific details about the upcoming dress days and special activities planned through next Friday!
We will begin reading Trumpet of the Swans on Monday, February 1, 2010. Each student needs a copy of the book for class. Please check the school library or local libraries for a copy of the book if you do not want to purchase it. The students will work on reading comprehension skills while reading this story and practice their writing skills.
Please turn in your sign-up sheets for service for the pancake breakfast scheduled for Sunday, February 14th. Students turning in any supplies for the pancake breakfast can have free dress on Friday, February 12th. I am keeping track of all the donations in class and thank you so much for all of your support!
Thank you to all students that have already turned in their signed progress reports. If you haven’t done so already please turn these in to me signed ASAP! Thanks!
Student grades can also be checked by visiting www.gradelink.com regularly.
Please turn in any pledge money for the Jog-A-Thon to class so that it can be counted toward your 2nd trimester assessment fees. Thank you for your participation!!
Also, please check the homework folders for any tests in which students have scored below 75%. Students may make corrections on a separate sheet of paper for tests only. Since we are in the middle of 2nd trimester many students need to re-stock their supplies for the classroom: glue sticks, sharpened pencils, erasers, paper, etc.
Have a great week and please feel free to contact me by sending a note with your child or through my diocesan email: yschmenauer.ourladyoftheassumption.ocs@sbdiocese.org .

4th Grade Homework Sheet
Dear Students and Parents,
Welcome Back!
Please notice the homework assignments for the next two days.(there are only two days worth of assignments) These assignments should be in your student’s return to school section of their homework folder.
Remember this Friday, January 8th, 4th grade will attend a field trip to the San Bernardino County Museum. Please refer to the information on the permission slip already sent home last month. Since we are going on a field trip students are required to wear their full uniforms. The free dress for $.50 will be available for 4th grade students on Monday, January 11th.
There will not be morning tutoring on Thursday, January 7th due to a staff meeting. Tutoring will continue the following Tuesday.
Students were given the guidelines for the mission model/project before school dismissed in December. Students are creating a model of the same mission they wrote their report on in December. If your student hasn’t shared this paper with you, please ask them for it and remind them to share all assignment sheets and helpful reminders with you on the days they are placed in their mailboxes in class. It is the student’s responsibility to get this information from their mailbox and share it with you regularly.
I am looking forward to a great 2010 and hope the students continue to give their best effort in the days and months to come! Please feel free to contact me by sending a note with your child to school or through my email @ yschemenauer.ourladyofassumption.ocs@sbdiocese.org
