Dear families!
What a very busy day we had for our first full day together in 4th grade! We had so much to tell each other - we got better acquainted, we learned some of the new routines, toured about HALF of our room, dug into some new books.... I am so pleased over how motivated our group is about their favorite books. They are already giving each other good ideas about what to read, and discovering new gems in our classroom library!
We all realized that except for one new friend who has recently moved here from China (!), everyone has been in each other's classrooms at some point since kindergarten! I saw some very heartwarming displays of friendship and caring and helpfulness throughout the day - what a special group of 4th graders I have the privilege to teach and learn with this year. I can't tell you how happy I am that we have all landed in Room 117 together for the next year.
Please check the homework page for a few reminders - and more reminders have been written on the first page of the assignment notebook. I will also be updating our blog's calendar. We start our first math class first thing Tuesday morning! In the meantime, may everyone enjoy a three day holiday weekend!
Your happy teacher, Mrs. Hannam
