4th Grade Homework Sheet
Dear Students and Parents,
Thanks so much to the parent volunteers that represented 4th grade for the Spell-A-Thon. We appreciate your participation so much!The Fabulous Fourth Grade did extremely well. There were many students that missed only one or two words. All students scored 75% and above and four students received special recognition for scoring 100% on the 60 words tested. These students are:
Alycia Hernandez    Ethan Medeiros
Andrea Moreno    Lanie Schemenauer
Congratulations for being so brilliant fourth grade.( Now go ask your parents if they can spell zephyr, constellation,unconscious, or rambunctious.)
Fabulous fourth grade will begin Book In A Can Projects for April's reading goals. Please see the guideline sheet included in this week's homework folders. Students are to bring their books to class on Wednesday, April 13th for the book check in class. This project will count for their reading grade. We have gone over this in class today and student's should be able to relay the information to you well. The final projects and reports/oral presentations are due after Easter Vacation. Again please note the due dates in the guideline sheet and rubric sent home today.
Remember to save the date: May 5, 2011 for our PTG performance of Character Matters! PTG costumes are due to school April 18,2011. Thank you to all the parents that are creating the best costumes ever! Students are doing so well during practice. Please continue to have them practice their songs at home. Also, students may practice their lines and acting parts since all actors are seen throughout the entire performance. They are truly wonderful and I believe the show will be a great way to express the importance of good character while having a lot of fun!
Students will begin to work on Spelling and Vocabulary words from their Open Court Reading lesson again. The new lists for the next few weeks are included in this folder. Please encourage your student to keep these lists in the “Keep at Home” section of their homework folders. Have a great week and please feel free to contact me by sending a note with your child or through my diocesan email: yschmenauer@sbdiocese.org.
