Auvigne's 4th Grade Update
Friday, December 6, 2013
Celebrating 10 years...
Honoring the Past, Celebrating the Present,
Looking to the Future
FYI
-
Good Afternoon,
Thank you for helping us welcome our new student, Tyler, to our classroom community! It has been a great week!
We will have our Math Topic 7 Test on Friday, December 19th. Closer to the test date, your child will be bringing home the "Daily Common Core Practice" packet and the "Quick Check" packet to help prepare for the assessment. He/she may do any of the activities on the enVision website to help them study/practice as well. There is a practice test in the text book that may be completed to practice, and this can be accessed through the enVision website as well.
2014 Adult Auction Event - We Need Your Help!
Our PTO Adult Auction Event "Investing Today for the Technology of Tomorrow: No Student Left Behind" is just 2 short months away! Our goal is to make every classroom at CHE an Innovation Space for the 2014-15 school year and we need your help! Although our auction committee has been very busy securing items for both the live and silent auction portions of our event, we encourage the entire community to get involved through assigned "Grade-Level Baskets". This is a great way for parents to donate as little or as much as they are able to, and combined with the rest of the grade-level, create an amazing, high-dollar gift basket for our guests to bid on!
Below is the link to "Sign Up" for the items listed that we need to create the 4th Grade Basket. The deadline to turn your donations into school is Friday, December 13th, so please remember to add CHE to your Holiday shopping lists! Please contact April Kempton, a[email protected] , with any questions. Thank you for your time and donations to help support this event! We have a HUGE goal to meet and it just wouldn't be possible without your generosity!

Check the homework section below to see next week's homework.
Our next classsroom newsletter will come out on December 6th.
Have a wonderful weekend!
Worth Repeating:
The 4th grade curriculum plan is available each month on the CHE website under the "Monthly Curriculum Plans" tab.
Sumdog is back again this year!
Students will have the opportunity to play math games on this free website, as well as participate in BV District sponsored Sumdog contests throughout the year. In the meantime, Sumdog is a great website your child can play at school and at home. As your child answers math facts, it self-levels based on their accuracy and speed, so don't answer the problems for them. A great feature is signing up as an adult to gain feedback on your child's weekly progress! Bookmark Sumdog on your computers for your child: http://www.sumdog.comThank you for checking the Nut Safer List located on the CHE website under "Forms and Documents" for snacks in the classroom. We want our classroom to be a safe place for everyone!
