Welcome to the 2019-2020 school year! I will be teaching your child ELA (reading, grammar, spelling, writing). I will try to follow the homework helpline assignments as best I can. As always, there may be some unforeseeable events. Please keep in mind we need to have an open line of communication for you the student/parent to have a great year.

September 23, 2019 1st Day of Fall

We made the first month with just a few hiccups!

Spelling test this Friday for all of my classes.  Students should be studying U1W1 list.  There is a copy in their textbook, in their red reading folder, and here:

Grammar test this Friday for all of my classes.  We are learning subjects and predicates.  Students completed a worksheet today finding the simple subject, simple predicate, complete subject, and complete predicate.  We are separating the subject from the predicate by using a backslash (/).  All periods have a double sided worksheet for homework.  They all had time in class to start it.

**Krispy Kreme order forms are due Friday.  Donuts will be delivered October 7.  More info will follow.
**4th grades shopping day at the school store is Thursday.  Please don't shop any other day.
**This year the Scholastic book fair is going to be held from October 7-11.  Students are only permitted to shop during open for all shoppers and their designated times.  If you are sending money in with your child, please put it in an envelope with their name and homeroom teacher's name.  My homeroom's scheduled time is October 19 at 10:20.  Free open time is available during all days, but limited to certain times.
**Please follow the dress code.  If you are unsure about an item, send it in with your child first before wearing it.

Have a great week!

I don't know where to begin.  I can't believe the news that was announced today by Governor Wolfe that school will not be conducted in the building for the remainder of the school year.  March 13 was our last day in the classroom, but we will remain a class, now just online! I want to hear from all of you as much as you can, but make sure you have permission.  I am planning on putting together a Google Meet meeting with all of my homeroom students.  I will send out invitations on your gapp email.  Please watch for it and accept my invitation.  It will be very informal; just a meet and greet where you can share whatever you'd like.  If you have something you have made while we have been out of the classroom, and you'd like to share it with your classmates, go for it! I am not 100% sure on how to "get around" Google, so please be patient with me.  If you log on to my classroom and you see Mrs. Laudeman's name next to an assignment, click on it.  We are w
Parents and students, This is not to create hysteria.  We are taking precautionary measures.  There is information on the NS page on Facebook, not that we should believe all social media, but this is a more reliable source. As of now, the following elementary events have been cancelled: Title I Family Night- March 24th Spring Pictures-March 24th Achieve Family Night-March 25th STEM Saturday-March 28th NS Spring Meet the Spartans scheduled for March 19th has been cancelled. Also, the Easter Eggstravaganza scheduled for March 28th has been cancelled. As more information becomes available to be shared, I will try to update you on here. Naturally, you want to keep up with your child's academics, so please review math facts, review grammar skills already learned, and keep on reading.  Read anything and everything and talk about it please. Have a great day! Mrs. Herring

Good morning!  I though I would add a little color to add cheer to everyone's day! I MISS all of you a great deal!  I wish we could have said more good byes Friday when we were leaving, but at that point, we thought we would be back and ready to fill the classroom again in 2 weeks.  Please keep in touch with each other and reach out to those of your classmates you may not have heard from.  Let's try to get in touch with everyone of our homeroom classmates. 4th grade teachers, and NSSD, are working on a wonderful plan to keep all of your brains as sharp as tacks (idiom, simile).  Please be sure to check back on Monday March 30, 2020 for some exciting information!  Remember we are working as a team.  We may make mistakes, but that's okay because mistakes help us learn. Students (and parents), if you want to say hello or share with me how you are doing or what you are doing, or you have questions about what is going on, you can certainly send me an email kherring@northsc
