Star News

I got this letter from one of Lexie's teacher's this past weekend. It says:

"The class has made so much progress in the past two weeks! All of
the students are starting to get a handle on the daily routines of a
fourth grader. We have been working on building a writer's notebook
during our Language Arts time. In Math we have worked with many
different ways to make patterns using numbers, shapes, blocks, and by
clapping our hands. In Science we have studied many of the scientific
processes that scientists use. In the coming weeks we will be working
on functions in Math, food webs and chains in Science, poetry in
Language Arts, and creating groups and centers for Reading.

I greatly appreciate all of the cooperation from the parents and
families at home. Just a reminder, homework is due the day after it
is assigned or your child will not receive credit. Please encourage
your child to complete their homework each night. Also, if there is
not a name on the assignment, no credit can be given. Reading logs
are due on Friday and your child will receive a new log to begin
working on over the weekend. Agendas are only required to be signed
on Friday, but feel more than free to check your child's agenda each
night. All of the fourth grade teachers use the agendas as a form of
communication home. I will try my best to write a small note in each
child's agenda sometime during the day on Friday. I ope all of you
have a great week!"

It sounds like the teacher Ms. Nappier has everything in hand.
Lexie's main teach is Ms. White, so I don't know if this applies 100%
to her or not.
