IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENTS:
LUNCH TIME: 10:44-11:14
FROM the PE TEACHERS: Please make sure your child wears socks and tennis shoes to school on PE days!
- We expect students to read for pleasure at home daily. There are no required reading logs or book reports. Just read a lot, and have fun doing it!
- We expect students to practice their math facts (primarily addition and multiplication) to gain and maintain fact fluency. Moby Max is the best way to do this, but students can also practice in other ways if they do not have the internet or a device at home. Fact fluency is essential for success in 4th grade math. Completion of this daily homework assignment will be demonstrated through academic progress. Incompletion of this assignment will result in a lack of progress in math.
- We expect students to complete the assigned Study Island and/or Moby Max assignments each week to practice what they're learning in school IF students have internet access and reliable devices at home.
- We expect students to study and be prepared for scheduled assessments.
- There may be times when individual students are required to complete work at home due to absences or lack of effort in class.
