October, pictures and project

Good Evening!

I'm sorry to say I forgot to send home pictures today as we were working on projects right until the last minute! I will be sure to send them home tomorrow.

We have finished our first round of edits for the essays and the timelines. Those will both be completed this week, and students will start creating their models. I know they are looking forward to this next step. They have been real troopers with the research and we are all looking forward to the "fun" part of the project. They have learned soooo much!

As they work on their plans for the models, they may be asking to bring some supplies in from home. Most supplies can be provided at school, but they may want some special items to add to their model. Thank you for your support in this.

You have awesome kids, and I am loving working with all of them!
Ms. Williams

Welcome to the 2017-2018 School Year!

Dear Fourth Grade Parents, We are so excited to begin this new school year with your children. We hope your families have had an awesome summer with many fun and relaxing times together. We wanted to explain what your child's day will look like and would also like to tell you a little about ourselves. We look forward to getting to know you as we go through the year. Mrs. Antoniono will be in our classroom from 8:00am - 12:30pm.  You will reach out to her if your child is sick, or running late, or you have any other beginning-of-the-day concerns.  First thing in the morning your children will have writing with Mrs. Hyde. Then they will be with Mrs. Antoniono doing math from 9:15am to 11:15am  (snack is from 10:15-10:30)..  After that, they will have reading with Mrs. Moon before their 12:30pm lunch break. All fourth graders trade classrooms for reading and writing as Mrs. Antoniono teaches third, fourth and fifth grade math. After lunch, your children will be spending th

Conferences, Project and Holiday plans

By -
Hi Parents/Guardians, It has been a long time since I have updated this blog. I am sorry, but life in our classroom has been crazy. In a good way! ***If you have not signed up for conferences for tomorrow, please contact me so we can set up a time when we can sit down together and discuss our first trimester. We are required to meet with every parent, and I will have to keep bugging you until that happens. ;-) Our project with maps is coming together very slowly. I am hoping we will finish next week and will let you know when our presentations will take place so you can come and see and hear what these fourth graders have learned about our state. Yesterday, I sent home student slips for a gift exchange/Secret Santa on the last day of school before break. As the note stated, if you do not choose to have your child participate, please let me know as soon as possible so I can make sure every child gets a gift. If you do that, please send the paper back with your child so I have so

'Twas the week before Christmas

Happy Holidays to you and your family! I hope you have a wonderful break with a lot of together time in which you can build special memories. I also hope everyone in your family stays healthy!! During the coming week we will complete our Map project. Unfortunately, it has taken students much longer than expected to work on these maps and they have not been able to complete them in a way that will allow us to present them to their families as we had planned. We will be presenting them, no matter what point of completeness they have reached, to others here at school on Wednesday. I am disappointed that you will not get to see the results of their hard work, but I promise that they will be presenting other projects after the first of the year that you will be invited to see. On Thursday, we will spend the afternoon celebrating the season with a craft project, Secret Santa gift exchange, and possibly a movie. Mrs. Antoniono will come and introduce little James to the class. We have a p
