WELCOME TO 4th GRADE!!!!!

We are very excited about teaching your child next year. During the summer, we would like for you to work on some skills with your child to get them better prepared for the next school year. Reading is very important throughout a child’s educational career. Please try to have your child read 25 to 30 minutes each day. A trip to the local library is a great way to have your child choose books that interest him/her. Please also encourage your child to keep a summer journal documenting their experiences during their summer vacation.

Fourth graders need extra practice in math during the summer. Students should know their multiplication and division facts. Math facts can be found on the Freedom web site.

When you are shopping for the new school year, please remember the following suggested list of classroom supplies:

Used regularly:

1) EAR BUDS or HEADPHONES for computers 2) Pencil sharpeners with trappers
