4th Grade

Mrs. Benson's 4th Grade Class

 

Hello!

 

The year is almost over.  It is hard to believe how quickly it flew by!  I will be so sad to see this group of students move on as I have enjoyed them tremendously! 

 

I would like to thank those parents who sent in snacks for testing.  It was greatly appreciated and enjoyed by the students.  They worked very hard during testing and were appreciative of the extra "brain fuel" those snacks provided.  Also, thank you to those parents who chaperoned on the fourth grade trip.  A great time was had by all! 

 

This last month of school is a very busy time of the year.  There are  many activities and projects to finish up and lots of exciting things going on around campus.  However, it is still important for students to remember that we are still learning this last month of school.   We still have a few stories in our reading book to do, some spelling units, several writing projects, and some spiral review of the math concepts taught this year.  I will continue to send homework home up through the last week of school. 

 

We have been using a lot of binder paper, so please check your child's supply regularly.  Also, please send your child with plenty of pencils.  If he or she uses the mechanical ones, please send lots of lead too. 

 

Remember, all parent volunteers must have a current TB test on file with the office.  Please see Mrs. Godinho in the office if you have any questions. 

 

I pass out a list of spelling words on Monday, but it is a good idea to have students copy it or make a second list for home.  I typically assign a practice spelling test signed by a parent on Thursday evening.  Spelling words will be posted on the website, but students should continue to keep a list of spelling words at home in the event of computer difficulties. 

 

I look forward to a successful year with your child.  Please feel free to email me or stop by if you have any questions. 

 

Below I have listed some important upcoming dates.

 

Thanks!

 

Mrs. Benson
