The 4th graders are doing our best to stay on track with all of these snow days! 

This week we are finishing up our Math unit with a test on Chapter 6.  Our ELA reading and grammar lessons from last week will be carried over from last week so that the student have the opportunity to clearly understand the concepts.

On Friday, we will have our Valentine’s Day Party.  Thanks to Mrs. Chiariello and Ms. Johnson for coordinating this!  Students may bring in Valentine cards for their friends as long they bring one for each child in the class.

Enjoy the vacation week!
