A quick note from the library:

From the library;

The wet and mud of Spring often results in wet and muddy library books.  We will encourage students to wrap library books in plastic bags during wet Spring days and will help out with this as much as we can. If you have some plastic bags that you would like to donate to this effort, please send them in with your student. 

Thank you!

Happy Spring!

We are cruising into spring!  We are working on division during math, reading a beautiful book and learning about characters and theme in reader's workshop, writing our opinions, and so much more.  We have also begun to do some serious reflective work.  We are thinking about some of the standards that need to be met in fourth grade, and thinking about our progress toward them.  Students use evidence, exemplars and each other in this reflective work.  This reflection will serve as the basis for our student-led conferences that are coming up in a few weeks.  Speaking of those, there is a link to a live sign up document on the top of this blog, and I will be sending a paper copy home this afternoon.  These conferences are a little different and we can accommodate up to four students and families in each time slot.  Please sign up for the time that fits your schedule best!

I hope you all have a wonderful weekend, and see you all April 6 for our conferences.

Spring Student-Led Conferences

Below you will find the link to a sign up for  parent-teacher conferences this spring. You can also find this link on the conferences page of my (this) blog. Please note, you should be able to just add your name write to the document, please do so.   I look forward to meeting with all of you. Our Spring conferences are a bit different than our fall ones as they are led by students. If you would like a little private time to chat with me, that can easily be arranged, please just let me know.  Otherwise sign up for the slot that fits your schedule best!

Please note: There can be up to four conferences happening in the room at one time.

Thanks,

Dave
