Please remember Jump Rope for Heart is tomorrow and Monday is a PD day so there is no school for students.

Our Novel in a Can project is well underway and I am very impressed with how hard the students are working. Be sure to ask them about their novel at home!

Thank-you for all the donations for our Building Project. This project will start on Apr.20 and the majority of classroom time will be spent completing this team project. We will be hosting a viewing for parents once the projects are complete. Stay tuned.

We have completed looking at fractions and will now move on to decimals.

If you were unable to attend Parent Teacher conferences, but would still like to meet with me, please don't hesitate to contact me at the school. A time can definately be arranged.

Have a great weekend

Mrs. Gutmann

April

I hope everyone had a wonderful break! Please remember that tomorrow Apr.9th is a Staff Meeting Day and therefore there is no school.

We are already back in the swing of things in Grade Four. In Language Arts, students are working on an independent Novel project called " Novel in a Can." Fractions and Decimals is our current unit in Math. If you are looking for a good game to practice comparing fractions, try googling Fraction Four!

Building week for Science will start the week of April 19th. There was a note sent home with information about the project and asking students to bring in recycable material. Thank-you for your help!

Jump Rope for Heart is next Friday on Apr. 16th.
