​Dear Fourth Grader and Family,

Welcome to 4th grade and Village School! I hope that you are enjoying your summer break, and have had plenty of time to have fun and relax!

 I am looking forward to seeing you on our first day of school.  Our class has an exciting adventure ahead of us!  This year in 4th grade we will be exploring the geography of the United States, sharing the books we are reading, writing poems and stories, and thinking mathematically.  We will also be acting, drawing, calculating, singing, doing experiments, and having lots of fun together as we learn!

To help you get ready for school, I have attached a list of materials that you will need for the year.  Most importantly, don’t forget to read a minimum of three books this summer.  I look forward to hearing about what you’ve read!

I hope you enjoy the rest of the summer with your family and friends.  I am looking forward to meeting you soon!

Sincerely,

Ms. Hood
