LET US LOVE WINTER, FOR IT IS THE SPRING OF GENIUS. - Pietro Aretino
A NOTE TO PARENTS
Dear Parents,
Our year is moving ever so quickly and it is a very busy time in the Fourth Grade. Students are working very hard and learning new things every day. We have been moving forward in Math and progressing very nicely. We've just finished our unit on graphs and will be moving into Geometry. In Social Studies we will be discovering who the early explorers of New York were. January will bring the English Language Arts state exam and our students will be well prepared.
The Fourth grade visited the Little Book House and we were very fortunate to meet the author of THE DIARY OF A WIMPY KID and have books signed by Mr. Jeff Kinney. It was enjoyed by all who attended.
Please ask your children if they are running low on any supplies such as pencils and notebooks. They may need a refill on some necessary supplies. Thank you all and have a Happy Holiday season.
Sincerely,
Mr. Balcavage
