This
website is usually updated every month with information about study trips,
projects, reports, etc. that are taking place in our grade level and in our
room. If you need to contact me by e-mail,
my e-mail address is fbenedetti@etusd.org. Happy New
Year!!! Hoping
everyone had a rested and happy vacation.
It’s hard to believe that we’re now coasting to the middle of the
second trimester. There are many
things in ’10 that our fourth graders can look forward to. June is right around the corner. ROOM
REPRESENTATIVE(S)… A
special thank you to all the parents that helped out at our holiday party
right before break especially to Mrs. Whitman and Mrs. Tynen who organized
the event. The children had a lot of
fun! Our
school science fair is taking place in March!
Entry forms were made available right before winter break. Room 14 is required to do a science
project. Students can do one on their own or partner up with someone of their
own grade level (3 is the limit). Some ideas are available on the PHYSICAL EDUCATION Physical education is a mandatory subject which, in our classroom,
takes place on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
It is important that every child participates in order to receive a
grade. If your child is physically
unable to participate, for example, has an injured leg or arm or has asthma
that is acting up, please write a note which will formally excuse him or her
from playing. Also, students should remember to where tennis
shoes on these days. Our goal is to build up our endurance for healthier
bodies. SUPPLIES Thank you to the parents who have sent in supplies to our classroom.
Tissues and pencils and other supplies are always needed! PLC As a reminder, Wednesdays are PLC days. Dismissal is at 2:27! CLASSWORK PAPERS Periodically, we pass back corrected papers that were recently graded
and recorded. Please review with your child the papers that do come home,
especially the test papers which need to be signed and brought back to
school. Some children have a habit of throwing those kinds of papers away. Planners should also be signed every
Thursday (or every evening if you choose to do so) along with the new
“behavior” card. This gives you a chance to review and reflect on what your
child did for homework for the week and if there are any upcoming projects
due. It isn’t too late to conference if you missed the week of
conferences. Please e-mail me if you wish to conference and we can then set
up a time. Thank you for all of your support! |
