Fourth Grade Morning Announcements
Your child will be chosen to read the morning announcements at some point in the school year if they wish. Attached is the link to practice at home if the form is accidentally left at school. The attached announcement is for Mrs. Novak's Thursday Group E, but a lot of the wording is the same.
During indoor recess, Chromebooks are locked up so that students can focus on what matters most - socializing, building friendships, and learning through play. Fourth grade teachers believe these opportunities to interact, communicate, and enjoy time with their classmates are just as important as academic learning. Check out the fun Group D had on a rainy day. 👇
The students had a blast with one of our Daily Scoops in Social Studies last week on the day of our 11:30am dismissal. On National Play-Doh Day, all students were given a container of play-doh and had to create anything they wanted in the little bit of time. There were so many amazing creations!! Below are some of the winners.

If your child is out for whatever reason, a helpful tip is to check TeacherEase for missing assignments. If an assignment is marked as missing and you know your child has turned in an assignment, it may just need to still be graded. If not, please contact me. I check for missing assignments daily, but I may miss something. Thanks so much for your continued support!! Please click on the link below if you need a refresher on how to check for grades and missing assignments in TeacherEase.
There were many changes last year, so I would like to remind you of the grading scale from last year. TeacherEase is still the place to go to find your child's grades, but there will be a newer scale. No more E, M, P, NI, or W to signify what your child earned on classwork, homework, quizzes, and tests. Below is the newer grading scale with the percent range. Please reach out with questions or concerns. Thanks so much!!
