Welcome to Room 47!!

HAPPY FIRST DAY OF FOURTH GRADE!!!

 

It sure was a hot one!  I told the class today that if they want to bring in water bottles to put on their desks to help keep cool, they are more than welcome! 

 

 

 

We spent our day getting to know each other and learning some of our rules, procedures, and routines!  For example, homework folders and agenda books - these were handed out today and we talked about how BOTH of them go home each afternoon and come back to school each morning!

There is a spot for Parent Initials - please sign here each night...that way expectations for homework assignments are clear and consistent!  Thank you! 

I am looking forward to a great year with your children!!  Please don't hesitate to contact me at any time with questions or concerns!
