Dear Parents,

We will continue to be very busy, so even though the weather is nice, I will be assigning homework. To prepare your child well for fifth grade we will be covering much material in class. Continue to encourage reading books, reporting the summary in the yellow laminated booklet, and reviewing homework each night. Wednesday is the awards ceremony and the Ordway field trip; and Thursday is the band concert. Several students have not turned in their field trip forms and money. Please check with your child about this matter! Your support is so appreciated!

DAILY LANGUAGE: Ongoing

DAILY GEOGRAPHY: Lessons 30-33

SPELLING: The last 25 states in abc order are the spelling words this week. Your child was given the list last Fri.. The pretest is Tuesday, and the final test is Fri.. There is no spelling packet. PLEASE WORK WITH YOUR CHILD ALL WEEK!

READING: STUDENTS ARE TO CONTINUE READING INDEPENDENTLY AT HOME. THANKS FOR ENCOURAGING YOUR CHILD TO READ AT LEAST 25 BOOKS THIS YEAR, THE DISTRICT RECOMMENDATION. READING MAKES KIDS SMARTER!

Each night your child has a math homework page. The pages this week are varied.
