Post 8 Fabulous Fall Days for Learning

Fabulous Fall Days for Learning


No School Monday, November 16th.  
This is a teacher work day!

These beautiful fall days are filled with lots of great activities for the girls in fourth grade.


The Lower School is currently working on an Outreach Project for the St. Stephen's Food Pantry. Please send in canned food items and non-perishable goods to help serve the Richmond Community.
Fourth grade girls will be taking standardized tests next week, beginning Tuesday, November 17th and finishing by Monday, November 23rd. They will work on two tests each day. We will be having a Writers Workshop, art activities and reading interspersed throughout each of these days. Please remember to make sure your daughter has a good night's rest and send her to school with a morning and afternoon snack. This will help keep up her energy and focus.

The girls have completed Unit 3 in Mathematics. The next unit will focus on learning about decimals through the thousandths and metric units of length and their conversions.

Students in 4-C will be performing their "final chapter" of All of a Kind Family puppet shows for classmates this coming week.





Our technology project this week was to create "mini billboards" celebrating uplifting ideas. The Fourthies used a template from values.com to put their fine thoughts to good use.

The Pop-Up Book Reports that the girls brought in this week are fantastic. They are currently on display in the LS Library.


Information on our next book report will be sent home this week. It will be due Friday, December 18th. Students may choose a non-fiction book about an animal or a fiction book with the main character as an animal.

Please join us on Wednesday, December 2nd
for the Lower School Book Fair.
Our class is scheduled to peruse the books from 2:50-3:10 p.m. You may send cash or a check with your daughter if you are not able to attend and wish for her to purchase books.

Book Fair Dates and Times:
Wednesday, December 2nd 12:00-4:00
Thursday, December 3rd 8:00-4:00
Friday December 4th 8:00-4:00
