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.

We are wrapping up Unit 2 in reading this week with our reading story.  We will be doing a cumulative project which we will discuss tomorrow in class.  It is a research project on an endangered animal.  Guidelines will be going home tomorrow.  The final project is due March 27, 2020.  Please do not wait until the last moment to work on it.  If there is something you need from me, please ask,

Tomorrow and Friday in reading, we will be testing on the Echidna and the Peculiar Platypus.  Thursday I will assess on the vocabulary, Latin roots and comprehension skills.  Friday students will answer two writing prompts, which we have been discussing techniques to help write a valid answer.

We will continue to work on Unit 3 in reading.  This includes spelling and grammar.  Check your children's assignment book for daily work/assignments.

The marking period ends on March 20.  Report cards will be going home on April 3.

Spring pictures will be March 24.  All students will get their picture taken, then you will have the option to buy them.

April 24th is Take Your Child to Work Day.  Paperwork went home last week or so.

May 1st is the 4th grade field trip.  Parents who are PTO approved should be sure to send in their permission slip and money.

If you have any questions or concerns, please send me an email kherring@northschuylkill.net.

Thanks,
Mrs. Herring

Miss Brobst's class has a grammar worksheet for homework.  It is reinforcing imperative and exclamatory sentences to prepare for Wednesday's test. Mrs. Herring's class has a scavenger hunt for Lewis, Clark & Me.  Answers can be found in the story.  The backside has vocabulary to be used as a review for Thursday's test. AR goals were stapled in your child's assignment book.  October goals are 5 points or higher.  Goals need to be met by October 30th. October 27 is the Halloween party.  Please send $5.00 in for party supplies. Have a great week! Mrs. Herring

Back to School Week!!! August 29, 2016

WELCOME BACK!! Where has the time gone from the end of 3rd grade to the start of 4th grade? Today was a great day!  We will be building confidence, communication skills and relationships with the fellow classmates. This week we will be "getting to know" each other through multiple activities, reviewing policies and procedures and expectations.  I will also be administering DIBELS and DAZE tests to see how the students comprehend and use vocabulary skills. Parents, please return the paperwork that was sent home at Meet the Teacher or with your child today if you missed Meet the Teacher.  I would like papers back by September 7th.  Book orders will be going home on Friday with your child in their Friday folder. They are due back by September 9th.  The more books the students order, the more classroom books we can earn for free.  There is online ordering available as well.   I am looking forward to a great year! Have a great week, Mrs. Herring...
