Fourth Grade News
For the Week of September 28, 2015
Early release day on Monday!
Engage NY
I will be sending home Engage NY homework for the first time this week. The homework has the same set up and expectations as the "problem set" paper we complete in class. If you have any questions about the homework you can email me, call me, or send a note in with your child. If your child uses the "problem set" paper as a reference, they should do just fine.
We are currently working on Module 1 and your child will be bringing home lesson 6 homework on Tuesday.
