I hope everyone is now back into the swing of things and is getting used to the 4th grade schedule!  In Math, homework will consist of a "half" sheet of practice problems.  Currently we are reviewing material covered in 3rd grade along with place value concepts.  It should not take them long to complete the sheet, 5 to 10 minutes at the most.  Also, please continue to practice multiplication facts daily.  Basic facts are the foundation to many of the concepts we will be learning this year in 4th grade.  Your child should be able to answer the facts correctly and fluently.  If you ever have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me. 

We have really been working hard to learn and follow all of the SPARTY rules.  So far, we have practiced staying Safe and Participating.  This week we will concentrate on Acting Respectfully.  Some examples of acting respectfully are: use appropriate voice level, follow directions and classroom rules, listen when others are speaking, and use kind words and actions.
