Happy Friday! Here are a few updates from us to you! Enjoy your weekend! G4/T2

SCHOLAR’S CORNER -  A few reminders to help us to get into the full swing of things! In your Word Work homework you need to make sure that you are showing that you understand the meaning of the word in your story.  Also, you need to have an adult COPS your sloppy copy and then  begin writing your final draft.  When completing your UNRAAVEL homework you want to make sure(like the example we completed together) that you are going back and underlining where the answer was found AND labeling in the text what question that answers. 

When you look at the Schoolwork   box on your BUZZ, remember that is the work that you completed in class the previous week.  You have until Wednesday of the current   to complete it! Most importantly ALWAYS ask questions to help you understand, we know that this takes time and as long as we have your great attitudes, we will accomplish it! Please write on the back of your BUZZ how your North Carolina project is coming along, what stage are you in?  We are proud of you! Ms. K and Mr. Jones

PARENT’S CORNER – We would love for you to follow us on our Grade 4/Track 2 blog.  There you will find helpful information that we try to update on a weekly basis.  You can find our blog by going onto the Brassfield site, clicking 4^th grade, and then either Kessler or Jones tab.  Either will bring you to the same blog.  Also, our Twitter handle is on the blog so you can see the discoveries as they happen. 

We have a meeting with our room parents on Monday, July 27^th.  Our room parents this year are 1. Laurie Hinnant  2.  Natalie Conrad and 3.  Karen Cox.  We hope to keep you informed by sending home a weekly buzz with a parent’s corner, the blog, and also a Shutterfly site that the room parents will run.  We will do our very best to keep you in the “know” if you have another suggestion please do not hesitate to share your ideas.  This trackout, Mr. Jones will be tracking out of his room so all materials will go home on August 14^th.  We are hoping to have a learning experience on the rise so be on the lookout for more information in the next week.
