Hi,
We had a busy and fun week and are prepared for more excitement in our last three days of fourth grade.
Reading Challenge Forms due on Tuesday! Monthly challenge for May was to complete the graph of genres for the 20 Book Challenge. We will celebrate with the children who completed their graph on Wednesday with lunch in the classroom and a special treat. Congratulations to all our amazing readers! Even if you didn't reach 20 books, I hope everyone read more and enjoyed more genres. Keep going over the summer and read everyday!
Texas Hero Projects due on Tuesday- Presentations will begin Tuesday also. Remember...be creative, use easybib.com for bibliography, bring in 3 objects or drawings, practice presentations this weekend, do your best, and have fun!
Reading/Writing Fun on Wednesday-Students can bring in a book that they would like to swap for another book. We will put all the books out on the table and everyone who brought a book, can choose a book to keep. Students can also bring in a sleeping bag/blanket, pillow, and books to read. We will move the desks and the kids will read or write for at least an hour. We will share our writing and reading with each other also and have a fun time reading, writing, and talking together.
4th Grade Bat End of Year Celebration on Thursday, June 2 at 1:00. See the sign up genius. Bring in a t-shirt to decorate and sign. Thank you Mrs. Banister for all your work as our room parent this year!

Yearbook Signing-We will have time with the entire fourth grade to sign yearbooks. If you didn't get a yearbook or don't want it signed, we will have paper books for autographs. This will probably happen on the last day of school, but I will let you know for sure.
Write Start Grammar Books-These workbooks came home this week. We did use them a little, but RRISD recommends teaching grammar using more mentor sentences and authentic grammar. Your child can use it this summer to brush up on grammar and continue to get ready for 5th grade and beyond.
Thank you all for the wonderful treats, flowers, notes, and gifts for Teacher Appreciation Week! Mrs. Banister brought in an incredible basket filled with goodies as well as a beautiful cloth box! You all are wonderful! Your children are amazing and I had a great year with them all. I enjoyed watching them learn, grow, and discover new things about the world and themselves. We had fun Skyping with children in Uganda, helping with book drives for Libraries of Love, Flip Flops and Kickball Tournament to benefit people in Honduras, OMS Toy Drive for Dell Children's Hospital, volunteering at Round Rock Serving Center, and especially learning and playing with our mentors from The Court at Round Rock throughout the year. It has been a terrific year and I am excited for our last three days together. I will miss them all, but look forward to seeing them continue to grow as 5th graders.
Thank you for sharing your child with me. Thank you for everything! Have a wonderful weekend!
Sincerely,
Pam
