September 2010

Welcome to the 4th Grade!  Even though the weather has been our typical hot St. Louis type, the students have done well with the first week back into the routine.

There will be many interesting and exciting things for the 4th graders as we work through this school year.

Each month there is a book report assignment.  The students are asked to read a different kind of book each month.  Then the report is always due on the last school day of the month.  The students will also be given different options for the type of book report that is due.  (That information will come home in notes to the parents.)  For September, the students may choose any book with a story for their reports.

I am really looking forward to a terrific school year and working with both the students and their parents!
