What new in class?

Dear Parents:
I want to welcome your child, to 4th grade I�m excited about the opportunity to get to know you, as well, and I�m looking forward to a happy and productive school year.
This year we will focus on the following curriculum areas:

� Math
� Science
� Health
� Social studies
� Arizona history
� Reading
� Writing
� And your child will be going to and elective class. Art, P.E. or Band

Please have your child bring the following supplies to school before 8/18/08:
� 2 boxes of tissue
� 2 glue sticks
� One index card box 3�x 5�
� 1 bottle hand sanitizer or wipes
� 1 package of index cards 3 x 5
� Dry erase markers
� Old rag or sock to wipe dry erase board
� 1 three subject note book

My homework policy is that it is up to your child in most cases how much homework they bring home. I do give the students amply time to finish work in class, but on occasions we will not finish and the work will go home as home work .

My grading policy is based on percentage.

Upcoming school events you should be aware of include:

Please mark these dates on your calendar. I hope you will make it a priority this year to attend as many school-sponsored events as possible.

We welcome visitors to our classroom, and we always appreciate parents volunteering to help out. Some volunteer opportunities that will be available this year are:
� Field trips
