Mrs. Goniwiecha's 4th Graders 2020-2021

I hope you all had a nice Thanksgiving and were able to spend time together as a family over the long weekend! We have three weeks left until Christmas Break and there are late starts every Wednesday this month. With the upcoming snow and cold weather, please make sure kids bring boots, snow pants, hats, and gloves every day. They are welcome to leave their gear in their lockers if that helps! Also, please make sure they bring shoes to change into, since we sit on the floor a lot throughout the day, especially for lunch, and don't want to get wet from snow boots.  Some things to remember: 1. Bring cold-weather gear and shoes to change into daily 2. Return your green conference folder(if you didn't already) 3. Sign and return report card envelopes( you keep the papers inside) 4. Mr. Hubble made every Monday P2 shirts day, so please have your child wear his/her t-shirt tomorrow and every Monday. This Week: Monday - Wear P2 t-shirts & Art Tuesday - Music Wednesday - Late Start

Everyone has been doing a great job so far bringing their devices back fully charged. I'm so excited about the opportunities this will bring. Extra work is not required at home, but the kids are welcome to catch up on Lexia if they are behind, IXL or Khan Mappers for extra practice, and Typing Club. Thanks for your help and support in finding a safe spot for the devices to charge nightly at home. Happy Thanksgiving!! Monday - Art Tuesday - Music Wednesday - No School Thursday - Happy Thanksgiving! Friday - No School

Thank you for taking the time to conference with me last week! It has been so nice to see the kids' faces without masks and meet all the parents, finally. I don't think I have ever waited this long to meet students' parents!! With the arrival of our new Chromebooks, we will be completing 3 boot camp lessons to prepare kids for proper usage and care. All lessons will be posted in Classroom so parents can view them too. I am planning to have a read-in on Friday for the half day and the end of the trimester. Kids can bring a pillow or blanket and a snack to enjoy while they read. Have a great week!! Monday - Art Tuesday - Music Wednesday - Late Start & Media Center Thursday - SEL Friday - PE, End of 1st Trimester, & Half Day

Conferences are this week! Students have been filling out their conference folders and we will practice how to lead the conference during class this week. I will email you a reminder of your day and time. I will also include the link for the conference, but it will only work if you have the Google Meet app. I recommend having your child start the conference from the link on our Classroom page. They all know how to get there and should have practiced getting into Classroom from home. Please let me know if your child needs to bring a school device home the day of the conference. Thanks for all your help with this new process! Monday - Art Tuesday - Music Wednesday - Late Start & Media Center Thursday - SEL & Half Day Friday - PE & Half Day  

We have a regular week this week, except for the late start on Wednesday! We will be preparing for conferences and anticipating the arrival of our new devices. I will send out an email with the Google Meet link for conferences, but it can also be accessed through Google Classroom. Unit 1 math tests will be coming home this week too. The grades will be shown on report cards! Our main focus this year will be fact fluency due to the shut down in March. The kids are already showing progress! Monday - Art Tuesday - Music Wednesday - Media Center & Late Start Thursday - SEL Friday - PE
