It was so great to meet all of you last night!! This is going to be such a wonderful year for your children. They will be challenged but fully supported both by you at home and by me in school. I look forward to how much they will grow as learners this year!
Our first week of fourth grade went very well. We are working on finding our balance between socialization and hard work. Next week I would like to hear less talking and see straighter lines in the hallways! 🙂
Today I sent home the date for the week that your child is scheduled to be our “Melting Pot” star!
I will send out monthly reminders to help you to be prepared for your presentation. However, I wanted to give the project out now so that you can work on it at your convenience. Remember that you and your family can choose to share the information in any mannor that you would like. (Posters, pictures, story, PowerPoint show, artifacts, etc) You may also choose to share everything at once or to break it up into two days. Sometimes splitting mom and dad’s sides work well too.
Have a wonderful weekend!!! I’ll see you all on Monday!!

Hi Mrs. Spata,
I had a great first week of fourth grade. I’m really enjoying our classroom especially the compliments and strikes. It is really neat! I am so happy that you are a Yankee fan! Who is your favorite Yankee? My favorite player is Derek Jeter. I wanted you to know that I donated 3,950 grains of rice in the rice game. See you on Monday.
