Hello Fabulous Fourth Grade Families!

We have an exciting week ahead! Our school wide March Reading Madness Challenge continues. When a student finishes a book they will complete a Book Review, in addition to a ticket in the book shield class jar, students will get their book and name on the class bookshelf. The class with the most books read will receive a prize! 

Also, I am excited to say that our snowed out field trip to Raynham Hall is this week. We will be going to Raynham Hall on Tuesday 3/24! 

Below you will find what we will be doing for each subject this week:
