Hello 4th Graders and Families,
This week we will continue to work on finishing beginning of the year assessments and complete math placements. Your child will receive a letter with their placement for the year. Extended math placement is designed to meet the needs of students who demonstrate knowledge beyond the current year's curriculum. These students also typically demonstrate the ability to think critically and apply mathematical concepts beyond computation. Several pieces of data are used in determining which placement is best for each child. Please note that all math classes provide a rigorous and engaging curriculum. Differentiation and remediation of skills is provided in each classroom to help address the individual needs of each student. We appreciate your patience as we finish evaluations and determine placement.
If you would like to learn more about your child's year, please come to back to school night on Thursday from 6-7 PM. This is a parent only event and will begin in the MPR. We will share information about our year, where to find resources to support your child's learning, and give you a glimpse into what a typical day in 4th grade looks like. If you are unable to attend, we will send home any information you missed and post our slideshows on our blog.
Thanks for your support!
The 4th Grade Team
