Fourth Grade Gives Thanks: 

We would like to thank all the parents who sent in treats and helped with the Halloween Party to make it special for the kids.

 We give a big thank you to the adults that helped chaperone on our field trip to the Brennan House.  It was a very interesting trip, and the children learned a lot about the Victorian Era in Louisville.  Hopefully they are a little more appreciative of the luxuries they have today!

School News:

We just wanted to remind you that the Challenge Words in the Spelling Units will now count as part of their grade and no longer be just bonus points.

 During the first quarter we mainly focused on the addition and subtraction basic facts.  In the second quarter we will be assessing the children’s knowledge of multiplication and division facts.  Any practice you can have them do at home will be very beneficial to their success in Math. 

 They have been brushing up on their computer skills!  The children have been working on Power Point Slides and Bar Graphs.  The students in 4L researched and created a power point on a saint.  The students in 4W are in the process of researching a children’s author and creating a power point slide for a presentation in early December. In Science they found out how much they would weigh on another planet and created a bar graph to show their results.  They are doing a fantastic job!!

Congrats to the winners of the Peacebuilder’s essay/poster contest that the school held.  The winners from 4W : Jessica Koebel (essay) and Hayden Polk (poster). The winner from 4L: Marcie Ohlendorf (poster).
