Hello Fourth Grade Families! Welcome back, I hope you all stayed warm during the snow storm!

Writing

Thank you for your support on the State Presentations! They look amazing! We are rescheduling our presentations for this Friday, the 27^th at 2:00 in the gymnasium. If you are available to attend that would be wonderful. Students will be delivering their presentations for their individual grades on Thursday the 26^th. A rubric for grading will come home with your student tonight. This will help them to be prepared for the presentation.

Math

We are starting to work on graphing information in various manners this week. From pictographs to grids, we will be charting and recording many different things in many different ways! It is a fun math unit; your child may be graphing various items around your home. This will lead us into Median, Mode and Range and also surveys.

Religion

We are still memorizing the Nicene Creed with the changes. We are also continuing work on the 10 Commandments – focus this week is on #4 - #10. It begins with Honor your mother and father. We have bee talking about ways to honor parents.

First Friday Mass

4^th Grade has the honor of delivering the readings at Mass on Friday February 3rd.  Please make sure your student is at school in full uniform and on time that day.

Coming Up

Sunday the 29^th is the start of Catholic Schools Week. There will be information coming in the home folder on the particulars of the week. It should be a wonderful time for all! Also, we will be starting recorder practice next week! Just a reminder of the $7.50 for the purchase of a recorder, this is due by February 1^st.

Thanks for all you do!

Blessings,

Lisa Fox
