These last few weeks have been a whirlwind!
There were concerns regarding the last progress report. Please keep in mind the students and staff were busy preparing and completing the PSSAs, so there weren't many grades to be included. We are working very hard to make up for missed time.
All periods are now back to the original reading book. We will all be finishing up with the same stories, grammar and reading lessons.
There is a spelling test tomorrow on U4W5 list words.
There is a grammar test scheduled for next Tuesday. The lesson is on irregular verb tenses. Students have at least 6 worksheets in their red reading folders they can use to study from.
There is going to be a reading test next week also. The story is Paul Bunyan. We have started the vocabulary words this week and have talked about generalizations in the past and again. All students have been asked to locate sentences from the story that show this is a tall tale.
In addition to academics, there are a lot of activities in the month of May.
May 10 Field trip lunch slips are due
May 13 All day 4th grade band rehearsal. No electronic devices are permitted. May wear gym clothes.
May 13 We will be walking around the stadium track for the American Lung Association Healthy Lungs Walk. Students will walk for 1 hour to build their lungs. If you would like to make a donation to the lung association, please send that in with your child. There will be a short recap/presentation the following week. Students may wear gym clothes.
May 14 4th grade field trip permission slips are due.
May 15 All day 4th grade chorus rehearsal. No electronic devices are permitted. Only chorus students may wear gym clothes.

Contact me individually please kherring@northschuylkill.net.
