From the Teachers…October will be our first month with one- to-one technology. Your student will have multiple online assignments and helpful tools to make better use of the device. Please reinforce the rule that laptops should be charged at home, and brought to school daily! They can keep their chargers at home. Please feel free to contact your child’s teacher with any questions or concerns.

In 4th grade we are writing complete sentences, using proper punctuation, and beginning our sentences with capital letters. Math – I can add, subtract, multiply, and divide large numbers. I can solve word problems using one of the four operations. Science – Students are visiting Mrs. Nazario weekly to have many hands on experiences in science this month!
