Hello Families!

I hope you enjoyed your week long break!  I relaxed, ate and rejuvenated and I am ready to tackle the 3 weeks until Christmas Break!

We are knee deep in our division unit.  We will finish this Friday and they will take an assessment next Monday.  I am working on getting a parent university together to teach you some of the "new" ways of multiplication and division.  My goal is to do one a month in December(hopefully), January, February and March.  This would be a way for you to come and see some of the problems your students are doing and for you to ask questions!  We want to partner with you in your child's education and if you can help them with homework, what better way?  

If you ever have questions or concerns, please call or email! Please sign your child's planner nightly!

See you tomorrow! 

Well I am a few short days of starting a brand new school year.  Students may not realize this, but teachers are nervous too.  I love the anticipation a new school year brings.  There is an excitement to beginning to unpack my room and think about what the year holds for us!
I also think about my former students.   I miss them and can't wait to see them!  I know they have grown so much and I know they are ready to tackle 5th grade!
I still don't know who my students are, but I cannot wait to meet them and get to know them!  See you August 26th when we begin our journey through Fourth grade!

Wow!  We are 6 1/2 days from the end of the school year.  My how the year has flown.  I hope your child has enjoyed the school year.  We have laughed, we have cried, we have been frustrated, but we pushed through and your child is almost a 5th grader!
Please keep them working on their math facts and various problems (I will send home a packet if you would like it)  and keep them reading.  It is important that they do not  fall behind in the summer months.  I will be sending questions you can ask after they read a book or article or even a webpage.
If you have any questions or need any assistance over the summer, please email me.  I check my work email daily and I am giving you my personal email as well.

I hope that you see this as a productive year for your child.  Thank you for the honor of teaching your child.

Hello families!
I hope you all had a wonderful Spring Break!
Please know that we are quickly approaching STAAR testing!  We have 2 weeks when we get back before the writing test.  Please remind your child the importance of focusing during class and completing work and turning it in.
Please sign planners nightly and check for graded papers on Tuesdays.  Students can correct work that received a grade of less than 70 to a 70.  When they correct the work, it must be corrected to receive credit.
Let me know if I can help you with anything.
