Can you believe we are already in the second month of the new year? Where has the time gone?! Below you will find updates for this week and the following weeks, as well as this weeks homework. We excited for another great week in 4th grade!
Some General Reminders and Announcements:
Science and Social Studies Homework: Going forward, we are beginning to incorporate science and social studies into combined PBL (project based learning) units that link with one another. Therefore, homework may be science related one night, and social studies related another night. We will always highlight this for the students (whether it's a science night or a social studies night), but please be aware! :)
Flyers & Graded Papers: As you may have already heard, all flyers, notices, and paper handouts will be going home with students on Thursday’s. Please know that we will be still be sending home graded work and classroom related information as soon as we have it ready to send out, so it is important to still check your child’s yellow folder every day when they come home from school.
Recess: Please encourage your child to bring warm clothes for recess! We try to take them outside as often as possible during these colder winter months, but they need to have appropriate clothing that will keep them warm in order to do so. We do not want anyone getting sick!
Science Lab: Please be on the lookout for Science Lab dates, they will be communicated to you all soon! Our next science lab is on Light & Sound, and this will provide great review as well as reinforcement of these units. As always, we cannot provide these labs for the kiddos without you, so PLEASE consider donating an hour of your time to assist with the labs. We appreciate it SO much!
Important Dates: Please remember that important upcoming dates are located on the calendar on the home page of our Weebly (you do have to scroll down a bit). Please remember to check it out regularly!
Chick-Fil-A Spirit Night: CFA Spirit Night is this Thursday! The class with the most participation wins a NUGGET PARTY! :)
School Play: Please consider coming out on either Friday or Saturday night to Alpharetta High School to see our school play, "The Big Picture". SO many of our 4th grade friends are starring in the play, and would love your support!
