SMITH'S SMARTIES

Instructor: MRS. SMITH

Welcome to Smith's Smarties 2018-2019!  I am so excited for this school year.  We will work hard and have fun!  Communication is the key to success.  I will teach your child Math/Science.  The students will also have Mrs. Walters for English-Language Arts and Mrs. Foster for Reading/Social Studies.  My homeroom will start and end each day with me.  I will pick my class up from the cafeteria no later than 8:10.  We have a lot to cover in fourth grade and ATTENDANCE IS VERY IMPORTANT.  Your child may bring a jacket to keep at school because different rooms may be cool.  Agenda books and folders need to be checked each night.  You may contact me by calling during my conference time 11:00-11:45, through email, or by a note in the agenda.  I know this will be an unbelievable year!

*MATH- During this 6 weeks, we will be covering multiplication in various ways.  Multiplication facts are key and  problem solving will be present within every unit.  We will also begin our Multiplication facts review with a homework packet and a quiz on Fridays!  *Please help your child to review these facts. * It is very important that your child knows their facts because we will use our facts during the entire school year!!!!!

*SCIENCE- We will follow the chapters and units in our textbook.  If we have a test that needs to be studied for, it will be noted in the agenda AND a study guide or definitions will be in the "TEST POCKET".  We will review in class for a few days before each test.
