Mrs. Spata’s Fourth Grade Blog

Remember to set yourself up for success…

Get a good nights sleep!

Eat a really filling and healthy breakfast!

Go to the bathroom at home and then again when you get to school!

 Bring to school one or two nice sharp #2 pencils.

We speak in class often about how much we have learned this year! It truely is an awesome accomplishment that my students have worked hard to achieve! We tallk about assessments/tests as a natural part of learning. How they help us to see what we have learned and what we still need to put more effort toward understanding better. We do not view tests as a stressful situation! Just a chance where we get to show off all that we have learned! As long as we try our best, there is nothing more that we can do. Everyday we will learn a little more and build our knowledge even further. :0)

While I feel very strongly that we should not be counting down to these dates, I do believe that you should mark your calendars for them.
