 Fourth graders are expected to read every night for minutes in their DEAR book.  It is your job to have parents sign your planner each night and return it to school each morning with your DEAR book.  I check planners at 8:30. If yours is missing or not signed, you need to make up the reading time at recess.

 We begin each day with Math.  The IXL site is a valuable tool.  You should spend minutes on IXL at home several nights each week.  If you don’t have a computer at home, we’ll talk about ways to work it out.

 If you pay attention use your time wisely, you should finish homework in about a half hour.  All homework is due the next morning. Anything unfinished will be counted wrong.  If you forget your homework you will need to do it over at recess.  If you forget too often, we will have a problem.
