Such a fun week dressing up and seeing so much school spirit! This week is one of our most epic weeks of fourth grade, the study of California Missions and MISSION BUILDING! This will be done entirely in class. However, we do need supplies. The students will be in groups of 4-5 and bring any cardboard boxes (we will cut and glue to get the Mission shape) and glue sticks (I have some but could use some more). Check out the pictures to get ideas of any extras your child may want to bring to add details to their Mission. Students will know their groups on Thursday and create a design. Friday they will build!
-READ! Students need 5 AR points per quarter. This week students will use their 3rd recess to get more AR points if they do not have 5 points.
-Any papers that say 'correct and return' have 3 days to return for additional credit
Word of the week: Missions
(if your student whispers the word to me MONDAY or TUESDAY they can earn a class ticket)
Mark your calendar we will be going to San Luis Obispo Mission January 24th (We will be revisiting our study of Missions this quarter) and
Columbia February 25th (more details to come)
***All parents can join for these two educational trips***
Parent Teacher conferences are coming up and are scheduled for Thursday October 31st and Friday November 1st. There is no school these two days. I understand that some families may struggle with this schedule and I have been permitted to offer the Wednesday before for some alternative conference times. Only email me if you are signing up for WEDNESDAY. To sign-up for the scheduled Thursday and Friday dates you will have to wait to sign-up for those times when the school sends out that link. If possible when the link does come out I would appreciate it if the Thursday slots get filled first. Thank you!
*If you are not able to meet on any of these dates please let me know and I will contact you with an alternative plan.
To sign up Email me your TIME AND DATE and I will update the chart.
I will email you back to confirm that time and date. I will take requests as they come. Please know I will honor a first come (email) first serve basis.

My deep hope is that we would grow in wisdom as we discover more about God and our role in His story.
