Fourth Grade PG Elementary Academy 2017

William A. Walton ~ 4101 Courthouse Road, Prince George, VA 23875

Welcome students and parents to an exciting three week learning adventure! Students will have an opportunity to explore Greece while building fluency and reading comprehension skills using TimeWarp, a research based literacy program. Students will build a strong foundation of number sense, adding and subtracting whole numbers using VMath, differentiated learning at its best! Students have online access to TimeWarp' Ticket to Read and VMath until July 31st, 2017. We encourage students to take advantage of these resources for additional practice, review, and acceleration at home.

We are looking forward to a fabulous summer school session! If you have any questions, please feel free to email or call 804-733-2750 .

Sincerely,

Ms. Laura Audino Laudino@pgs.k12.va.us
