If you want to listen over the summer, save this somewhere. We left on episode 25 (we will see if we finish it -might be episode 26 by the time you get this). This is the 6 minute Podcast. I hope you enjoy.

Report cards are available through TeacherEase. At this time we have been told that we are not sending printed cards home.

Talent show – we are doing a 4th grade ONLY talent show next week on Wednesday and Thursday (only if enough kids are willing to perform. If not, we will use the time for a different activity.)

Wednesday – we will also do a Field Day. Please bring sunblock because we are hoping for sun (if you are a praying person – feel free to pray for sun. If you are not cross fingers.) and we plan to go outside to do some fun and amazing chalk art!

Also, Friday is a $$paid$$ dress down, but Tuesday-Thursday next week are all FREE dress downs!

We got permission for one last field trip. We NEED FIVE parents to come with us. We also need everyone to donate their $5 unless it is a financial hardship because otherwise we will not have enough money for the busses. This field trip is on Monday. I know that’s short notice. Please fill out this form.
Also you can pay your field trip fee ONLINE! How cool is that? You can do that here.

As you may know, we sometimes play Prodigy in class. Prodigy is a fun math game. Our school receives a special upgrade offer. If you are interested, please click this link, read the information, print and fill out the form for your child to bring to the office.

Please read through and give permission.

May 10th is Quest’s Carnival. Volunteers are needed. Volunteers need to be at least 16. Please use this link and feel free to sign up!

Field Trip Permission Slip

We are excited to announce our next field trip! The entire fourth grade will be traveling to Thanksgiving Point to tour the Museum of Ancient Life. Our classes will be using the Frontrunner instead of busses for this field trip. The field trip will be held Tuesday, April 30. We will be meeting at the Frontrunner station on 4000 South promptly at 8:30. There will be NO RIDES provided from the school to the Frontrunner Stations. Please make arrangements to drop your student off by 8:30, as the train leaves at 8:45. Students will need to be picked up at the Frontrunner Station on 4000 South. Our train is scheduled to arrive at 3:16. Please be there on time. Again, there will be NO RIDES from the station to the school. Every student will need a signed permission slip in order to participate.

    We will have no way to provide lunch for students on that day, so each student will need to bring a COLD lunch from home. There will be no microwaves or silverware, so plan appropriately!  Students will need a bag to carry their lunch in.  If you would like to attend the field trip with your student please indicate so on the permission slip. Remember to bring your lunch.

    We are asking for a donation of $7 per student as there is a fee for this trip.  I have room for five free adults to come with us. More parents are welcome to come, but you will have to pay for your admission to Thanksgiving Point. I will draw for the five free, more are welcome, but just know you will be paying to attend. I will hold the drawing for free parents April 23rd and notify you if you will be paying or will be free. If you have to pay, you will pay your entrance fee at the park, not at the office. Parents not chosen for chaperones, you will need to buy your Frontrunner pass. If you can get in a group of 4, you can pay $4 for a ticket. Otherwise, the cost of a ticket is extra. No siblings are allowed on the field trip.  Any adult volunteers will be required to ride the Frontrunner with the students down to Thanksgiving Point and back. Also, just so you are aware it is approximately 1/4 mile walk from the station to the museum, and then we repeat that walk to get back on the trains. Note: Per school policy, please do not feed the students. There is a cafe and gift shop. We do not want the students to visit these areas during the trip.
Thank you,
Fourth Grade Teachers

WHOlives is delighted to partner with you, your class and Quest Academy Monday, April 15-19 to introduce our award-winning Service Learning Program, a simple week-long activity that teaches COMPASSION, COLLABORATION AND INNOVATION in a very hands-on way. The program is simple and does not require a lot of effort. A recent grant from Brigham Young University has allowed us to offer your school a host of resources with STEM-related principles that apply to real-life problems. You can learn more at: www.WHOlives.org/learning.

Tuesday – Friday next week. Tuesday- we will be collecting pennies and nickels. Wednesday- dimes. Thursday- quarters. Friday- Dollars (Dollar dress down day). We hope to be able to collect enough to purchase a well for these children in Africa.
