IPads and School Pictures!

Items to watch for: 

1. iPad Agreement Form and Family Letter - These items were sent home today in your child's homework folder. Please read the letter regarding  the use of iPads in 4th grade. I have read the letter to the class. Also, please review the yellow iPad Agreement Form with your child.  We review the form  in class today, but it is important to discuss it together at home.

Please SIGN the yellow form and send it back to school tomorrow. We have begun using iPads regularly in class and it is important that the students / families are aware of the expectations. 

2. iPad Email from the district (Brian L'Heureux) - This email will briefly explain the 1:2 iPad program for fourth graders, and also has important information regarding making passwords with your child.

3. SCHOOL PICTURE DAY is tomorrow - Wednesday 9/28.

Feel free to let me know if you have any questions.

CURRICULUM NIGHT

CURRICULUM NIGHT

September 22,  2016

6:30 – 7:30 PM

Coolidge School

Room 31

I will begin promptly at 6:30 ,as there is much to share.

Mrs. Clouter will be meeting with all parents in the gymnasium at 7:15.

Don’t forget to sign up for your parent conference which will be held on Tuesday, November 8^th.    I have also set aside some alternative dates (before / after school) to best accommodate everyone’s schedule.

Lastly, the PTO is asking that parents share their contact information so room parents can reach out.  There will be a form for this next to the parent conference sign up. 

I’m looking forward to sharing the excitement and expectations happening in our class!

Homework Communication

Just a few heads up about homework today / this week.

READING LOG - they are to read for 20 minutes and record their reading.  The log is to be brought back tomorrow SIGNED by an adult.  Please check to make sure they have met the requirements listed at the bottom of the page.

MATH

A.  GOALS - please check over your child's math goals.  Sign the goal sheet and return only the goals sheet.  The letter (blue paper) and their work can stay home.

B.  PAGES  1 - 4.   In class we did samples from each section.  Please have your child do their best they can do.  This should take them about 15 minutes.  If it takes longer, they may stop and you can sign that they have worked (focused and really worked at it for 15 minutes) and we can finish the rest in school for morning work.
 
 CONTINENT and OCEAN quiz -  Next Tuesday September 13th, the children have a quiz on the continent and oceans.  You will see that they have a study paper and a few practice papers to help them.  The practice papers do not have to come back to school   This should be review for the fourth graders.

BLUE COMMUNICATION FOLDERS - please make sure the BLUE COMMUNICATION folders are cleaned out on the day they go home and have your child return the folder to school tomorrow.

Thanks for your continued support.  IF you have any questions, please don't hesitate to get in touch.
