Weekly Update - 12/14/2008
Dear Grade 4 Parents,
It will surely be a fast week this week with all we have going on. Here's a few reminders:
We have a short field trip to the Gateway Center in Pacific Grove (the permission slip mistakenly says it's in Seaside. Sorry!) on Tuesday morning. There are a few students who have not yet turned in their permission slips for this. Please make sure your child brings it in tomorrow. We still need one or two drivers to do the trip. At my last count, we had seats for about 19 - 20 students. If anyone else can help, it would make the trip possible. Please let me know asap. (Depart around 10am, return at 11:45)
We decided to move the Secret Santa gift exchange to Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday so all could participate. Tuesday is the small treat, Wednesday is something homemade (bookmark?, ornament?) and Thursday a small gift under $5. I have backup gifts if anyone forgets and will try to find a moment to open up my "star store" so the students can purchase the little things I have if they would like for their Secret Santa. I am trying to keep this stress-free for the parents and fun for the students. Let's hope it works.
Wednesday evening is the ISM Winter program. The program begins at 6:30 so, I am assuming the students will need to be at school at 6:00pm. Stay tuned for more details.
Wednesday morning the Earth's Surface and People project is due. We will begin presentations on Wed. Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns with this.
Friday is free dress and an early dismissal at 11:30. We have been invited to join our 8th grade reading buddies for a morning holiday party. I hope you saw the note about food requests. I assume the students may not be too hungry at that time but a little snack will be welcome if possible.
Thank you to the families who purchased books from the book fair for the classroom. They are in our class library ready to be read. We appreciate your help in building the library.
Homework:
No spelling
Reading 20 minutes, record in planner
Math: Monday: Study Links 5.5, Tuesday: None, Wednesday 5.6, Thursday 5.7
Wednesday Earth Science project due - 5 paragraphs.
Have a wonderful week,
Mary Welsh
