4th Graders are Awesome!!

This week marked the half way point of the first quarter! With that, all students should be at least halfway to reaching their AR goal. Please make sure they are staying on track and reading their daily 20 minutes at home. Because of mid-quarter, there were many tests this week. All tests, Math, Social and English look great! It is exciting to see all of the hard work the students have been doing is paying off for them!! The fire escape projects are all completed and are awesome. Hopefully you and your child had an enjoyable time completing this project together and your family now has a better idea of what to do if there is ever a fire in your home. We also started out RTI groups last week. The students participating in these groups are making fantastic improvements. During RTI time some of the students are participating in Accelerated Math, which is an independent supplemental math program in which students can get more math practice and skills.

Things to come...

On Monday and Tuesday the student will all be screened for vision and hearing. This is done ever year in elementary school. October 11-18 is National Bullying week. In health, Mr. Hinsz will we talking about ways to stop bullying and how to identify if someone is being bullied. There will also be a group project the students will have to complete in school that deals with different bullying situations. This week in spelling we have a review week which means that all of the spelling words are words that have been tested on over the past 4 weeks. Please make sure to study!! We are starting Multiplication in math this week, which is something new to the students. Please be sure to practice multiplication facts at home with your child so they can be ready for this new concept at school!! Have a GREAT week!!

Some students having fun at the homecoming parade last week!!

You could also include a brief list of the types of products, services, or programs your organization offers, the geographic area covered (for example, western U.S. or European markets), and a profile of the types of customers or members served.
It would also be useful to include a contact name for readers who want more information about the organization.

Back Page Story Headline

This story can fit 175-225 words.
If your newsletter is folded and mailed, this story will appear on the back. So, it’s a good idea to make it easy to read at a glance.
A question and answer session is a good way to quickly capture the attention of readers. You can either compile questions that you’ve received since the last edition or you can summarize some generic questions that are frequently asked about your organization.
A listing of names and titles of managers in your organization is a good way to give your newsletter a personal touch. If your organization is small, you may want to list the names of all employees.
If you have any prices of standard products or services, you can include a listing of those here. You may want to refer your readers to any other forms of communication that you’ve created for your organization.
You can also use this space to remind readers to mark their calendars for a regular event, such as a breakfast meeting for vendors every third Tuesday of the month, or a biannual charity auction.
If space is available, this is a good place to insert a clip art image or some other graphic.
