Hi! Welcome to 4th Grade! I am very excited to get to know your child, as well as looking forward to having a great year!  Fourth grade is a year full of exciting learning experiences.  I love the curriculum and love sharing it with the students. It is my goal that we will grow together and create a classroom full of caring students who take pride in themselves and their accomplishments.  I can't wait to see what this year brings!

This site will contain information for what skills we are learning in class, upcoming events, homework and upcoming tests, and spelling and vocabulary words.  It will be a way of me communicating with you about our 4th grade community.  If you ever have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me.
