4th Grade Rock Stars!

Hello Families!

Welcome to the 2025-2026 school year!

4TH grade is going to be full of new challenges but FUN!

With the full implementation of the California Common Core Standards, the expectations of students' ability to express their thinking and reasoning will be an important part of their daily learning. The math and language skills will also increase in difficulty, but TOGETHER we can make this year a success! I believe that it takes teamwork to be successful, and when we work together our students will know they have a team behind them, believing in them, helping them to achieve.

Please let me know if you ever have any questions or concerns. I will try my best to get back to you right away (e-mail is the fastest way to connect, but we can always set up a time to meet/phone conference).

Our GOOGLE CLASSROOM website and GO GUARDIAN app will be one of the main communication tools I plan on using with students this year. This is where students will log in daily and complete assignments and collaborate with me and each other. You can also use this Pioneer Class website for valuable resources. Here, you will find information about our school, classroom news, what we are learning, all things important to second grade, awesome websites, and educational resources.

I look forward to the new school year and to meeting all of you and your precious children! Here is to a SUCCESSFUL 4th grade year!!

A little about Me........

I have been teaching for 26 years in TR. I have a wonderful husband and two beautiful and smart daughters in college at Davis Law and UC Santa Barbara. I LOVE to travel, cook, and read while drinking coffee and munching on chocolate or sweet/salty snacks. I love the color gray/black/pale pink and Pandas. Most of all I love teaching!

Contacting

Mrs. Todd:

It takes a community to teach a child, a community of parents, guardians, and teachers working together. Parents and guardians are encouraged to email me with any questions or concerns you may have at:

alicia.todd@trusd.net

Also, please sign up for Class Dojo. Class Dojo is a private messaging platform that enables teachers and families to communicate with one another and send pictures and videos of your child's work. I plan on using Class Dojo as a way to communicate classroom/school events, classroom needs, and much more. If you are interested in push notifications or text notifications about our classroom and school, please follow these directions to receive messages from me.
