Last Day of School!

Happy last day of school!

Please be sure to check out your child's report card. I asked the kids not to open it until they were with an adult member of their family. In the report card envelope you will also find their summer assignment from the fourth grade teachers. Please note that they have a math and reading assignment.

In addition, you will find a large, manila envelope labeled "Portfolio of Progress," and all of their notebooks and folders. It should be fun to look through all of this work and notice the changes from September through June.

Finally, you will find a large, manila envelope labeled "Summer Stimulation" this includes summer reading lists, and math practice/challenges for each child. Although children are required to read this summer, the math included in the Stimulation folder does not need to be returned. I explained to the children today that I do not expect them to be doing academics all day, every day. I hope they rest and have a lot of fun! However, they might choose to keep their academic brain in gear by spending some time with math once or twice a week.

Happy summer!
