Hello Fourth Grade Families,
Spelling tests from last week and the unit 7 math test went home today.
ELA MCAS (reading and writing) is this Thursday, April 11 and the Tuesday after break. Students have all day to take the test if they need the time. (Math MCAS will be May 6 and 7.)
There is no homework this week because of MCAS. Students are encouraged to read a good book, laugh, spend time with their families and friends, go to bed early, and eat a good breakfast on MCAS day.
Friday is an all-school read-a-thon day! Students are welcome to come to school in pajamas or comfortable clothes. They are welcome to bring sleeping bags, blankets, stuffed animals, and favorite books from home. Most of our day will be filled with reading and reading related activities. We will spend time reading with our first grade buddies. Students will still have PE and recess, so they should bring shoes and clothes to move around in.
Next week is school vacation.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thanks,
Katrin Griswold
