WELCOME TO THE FANTASTIC FOURTH GRADE!

HOORAY! We had a FANTASTIC first day of school. I am delighted to be working with many of my former second graders AND to have three wonderful new students in our class. We spent most of our day getting our supplies organized, practicing our classroom procedures, reviewing our classroom and school rules, "getting into the swing of things", and did a bit of work on our superhero project. I gave a small homework assignment. The students have a questionnaire to complete by tomorrow. There is also an assignment for you, the parents. It is a short questionnaire that will help me understand how to best meet your child's needs in our classroom. Please return this survey by Friday of this week. Please contact me with any questions, concerns, or suggestions that you have to help make this year a fantastic one for your child. My school number is 864-0299, ext. 247. My school email is tpress@torahacademy.org. I check these messages several times during the day. I look forward to seeing you at our lower school open house next Wednesday evening!


Shalom!
