4th grade Monday Letter
Weeks #25 and #26: March 11th – 22nd
1. Upcoming Author Visit: Andy Griffiths, author of the 13th-Story Treehouse series, will visit with grades 2-5 on March 19th. This hilarious series is a hit with even the most reluctant readers! Book order forms are due this Thursday, March 7th and available on the library website. Thanks to the Brookline Booksmith for making this visit possible.
2. Broadmoor Field Trip: Wednesday March 13th is our field trip to the Broadmoor Wildlife Sanctuary. We will be spending the entire day outdoors studying the earth’s surface and how it changes over time. Because so much of the trip is spent outside, please make sure students are dressed appropriately. Warm layers and water-resistant shoes are recommended.
3. Parent Work Share: Fourth grade is hosting another Parent Work Share on Thursday March 28. Mark your calendars and stay tuned for more details!
4. Community Meeting: 3S will be hosting Community Meeting next Friday, March 22nd. Join us from 8:10-8:40 in the theater if you can!
5. Arts Equinox: Driscoll’s annual Arts Equinox is coming up on April 4th and 5th. On these two days the whole school drops everything and focuses on celebrating and creating art. Each 4th grade class will enjoy workshops led by parents, fellow students of Driscoll, and local artists.
6. Spring Conferences: Stay tuned for information from individual classroom teachers about signing up for Spring conferences. Please note that you will not receive a formal progress report at this conference (these will be sent out at the end of the school year), but rather the meeting serves as an opportunity to discuss student progress, as well as other future considerations for your child. Conferences are 20 minutes long, so it’s important to arrive on time.
