Math: Chapter 10 test




!! Important Reading Project Update !!

Students are no longer permitted to complete a reading project on Twilight, Diary of a Wimpy Kid, or a chapter book that is based on a movie or TV show unless they receive approval from a fourth grade teacher.  Without approval, projects completed on these books will not be accepted.  If a student is not sure what is acceptable, they are to ask a fourth grade teacher if it is acceptable. 






Materials Needed:


* Kleenexes and clorox wipes needed!  Please send in these items for the cold and flu season.  Thank you!






Dress in Layers:
Our classrooms may be chilly!
