We hope you all had a wonderful four day weekend full of relaxation and fun! We are so excited to be back with the kids, and are ready for another (short) week of learning! Please continue reading to check out our reminders, announcements, and homework schedule for the week.
Some General Reminders and Announcements:
Curriculum Night: A quick reminder that Curriculum Night is on Thursday, September 5th! This is a wonderful opportunity to come and learn about 4th grade and what your kiddo will be doing this year. Please be prepared for an interactive, FUN way of learning about 4th grade (in a way that will also allow you to see how your child will do some different things this year!)
Curriculum Night Schedule:
5:30-5:45 PTA in Cafe
5:50-6:30 Session 1
6:30-6:40 Break/Transition
6:40-7:15 Session 2 - Repeat of Session 1 for Parents with multiple kids at NPE
Picture Day on Wednesday, September 11th: Below is a prepay link for our fall pictures scheduled for Wednesday, September 11th. This link will allow you to order online with a debit or credit card. This gallery will stay open and active until we get the images back into the office and start to process the job! Traditional paper flyers will be coming home tomorrow in Thursday folders.

RELA, Math, and Social Studies/Science Blogs: Just a quick reminder that we will be updating our 'content' blogs at the beginning of every unit. Blogs for our first units for all 4 core subjects have already been posted. If you have not checked them out yet, please do so so you can see what is being covered during the unit. Direct links are below, or you can access them by hovering over the '4th Grade Blog' header above until you see the drop down menu, and then select the blog you would like to check out.

STEM Lab Needs (From Mrs. Davis): It is time to replenish the Stem “Store.” I am in need of water bottles, small boxes (shoe, etc.), paper (newspaper and magazines), and any cool little things you think our amazing engineers could use.
Birthday Treats: A gentle reminder- If you plan on sending in a treat to school for your child's birthday, please email/send in a note to your child's teacher at least 2 days in advance. Many classes have allergies, and this is something your child's teacher will need to communicate with you prior to the treats coming to school.
