Week of January 10

Sunday Schedule:  Week 1, Day 1

Upcoming Events and Special Notes: 
This Thursday, January 14 is Rainbow Day in the Elementary School!  This means that students will be participating in team building exercises with students from their grade level and others!  Information was sent out with report cards, but here are just a few reminders.  Please remember that students should pack their own snack and sack lunch for this day as there is a picnic at the end of the event.  The picnic will be begin at 11:45 and parents are welcome to join for the picnic (or at anytime during the event to watch)!  Games will be held from 9:00-10:15 and again from 11:00-11:45.  Also note that this is an early release day.  Students will be dismissed at 12:30 so be sure to discuss any special after school plans with them (no ASAs on this day because of the early release).  Other than that, just make sure to send your student to school dressed in their specific color, athletic clothes, and closed toed athletic shoes!  Colors are posted in the classroom so students should know what color they have.

If you haven't done so already, please be sure to follow the 4AN Blog to stay updated about upcoming events!  To follow, scroll to the bottom of the blog and enter your email address in the Follow by Email box.  Click submit and be sure to verify your email subscription request by entering the code given and clicking on Complete Subscription Request.  You should receive an email that states that you have completed the process.  If you are having troubles subscribing, please let me know and I can assist in any way possible.  The most important piece is to make sure you follow the instructions all the way to the confirmation email.  By following the 4AN Blog with email, you will be emailed each time the blog is updated; a lot more convenient than remembering to check it!  The 4AN Blog is typically updated the last day of the week with news about the upcoming week.

The 4AN Homework Planner is another great way to stay informed about what is happening in school.  Students are filling it in with additional homework assignments and announcements about upcoming dates at school and should be getting a parent signature each night to tell me that you've seen it.  Although you can get a lot of the information from the 4AN Blog, we're really working on organization skills and independence in grade four!  The 4AN Homework Planner is a good tool to help students to stay organized and inform you about upcoming dates!
