Halloween Party

Our class has a volunteer to plan our Halloween party and she needs 3 or 4 parents to help her.  This is a great way to pick up some volunteer hours.  Our fourth grade class has been working super hard this year.  I am so proud of them.  They work hard, they are respectable and each day they amaze me with their enthusiasm and eagerness to learn. I have attached contact information for M. Deller, the volunteer parent who would love your help.  Again, thank you for the opportunity to teach your students.  They are wonderful.

Trick or Reading-2Trick-or-Reading Halloween Project

Parents and students,

It is time for our annual October reading project, Trick-or-Reading!

Here are the details:

1. Pumpkin Book Report: Students must read a book (chapter or picture) and create a pumpkin that looks like the main character from their book. Students can carve, paint, dress or otherwise decorate their pumpkin in any manner they choose.

2. Students then create a tri-fold poster to display, on which the setting, characters, main problem, solution, and their favorite part(s) of the book are displayed.  Tri-folds also need to contain the name and author of the book.

 

3. Student MAY also dress up as their main character but are not required to do so.  Please DO NOT invest a lot of money on a costume. Instead use things from around the house and be creative.

Due October 29th.  Activity on October 30th, 9:00-10:30.

FYI for parents/students

Next week is Fall break.  Short day on Tuesday, school is dismissed at 1:00.  It is NOT a dress down day.  No school Wed-Sun (15th-19th).  
Please continue to master your multiplication tables.  We are starting into math where you will need to have your times tables mastered or you will be lost and struggling.  Fifteen minutes a night and you will become a Jedi master of multiplication.  We have a wonderful class, thank you for working so hard and being respectful.  You ROCK!!  

We made it….through the first day!

Parents and students, We had a wonderful first day. We have an amazing class. This is going to be a great year. Our students will have time each day to read in class. Please have them bring a chapter book to school. We have a good selection in our classroom library if they would rather use one of these. Also, please remind your student to read at least 20 minutes each night. Thanks, and please let me know if you have any questions or concerns. Mr. Bokinskie
