Each week, the kids will have new VOCABULARY words. I am not going to reprint the activities for homework each week. Please refer to this for homework each week. Monday night, review the words/phrases with a family member. There will usually be 12.  Discuss which words you use that are familiar, but could be used in a different way.

Today was day 9! We are beginning to fall into a routine, and are working on our behavior during lessons.  The kids should have all of their supplies by now . Here is another look at the supply list, I assure you, these supplies are actually used by your child.   4th Grade Supply list for Mrs. Werner's Clas s Topics of discussion that I could use your assistance with at home: 1. Focus- Some of the kids are struggling with the switch from Summer Break back so school. I am having to ask many of them to sit up while working or when I'm teaching . Mondays seem to be really tough. There is a lot of research about sleep and the fact that children need a minimum of 10 hours each night. This is as important as reading every night. 2. Manners at lunch- Teachers have been eating with the students each day at lunch. Please discuss with the kids that eating small bites and chewing is appropriate in mixed settings. Another issue at lunch is talking with full mouths, and leaving p...

I just received our specials schedule for this school year. This should not change, but if it does, I'll let you know. Monday- P.E.        Teacher-Coach Mo/Mr. Brown Tuesday- Stem      Teacher- Dr. Grizzle Wednesday-P.E.    Teacher- Coach Mo/Mr. Brown Thursday- Music   Teacher- Mr. Wuestefeld Friday- Art            Teacher- Mrs. Spann On PE days, please make sure that your child has on shorts or pants, and sneakers/gym shoes. This comment is especially for our girls as they may prefer to wear skirts and dresses. Shorts should always be worn under dresses, as we will have time on the floor and recess. Our kids are at the age where they are noticing each other and the girls' modesty is important.
