Upcoming dates :
We are almost to the end of this 4th
Grade year. I am amazed, as always,
that time passes so very quickly. It has
been a good year. Each one of my students in room 266 has grown in numerous ways. They have matured and
learned a great deal.
We still have six days to go. Don’t think
we are stopping! We have much work to
do and tests to take this next week. We
have the award day on the following
Monday and the 4th grade Lunch on the
last Tuesday. There will be plenty of
work between now and then. Research
papers (Q4 Writing Prompt) are due
TUESDAY. Each student was given a
check list for this project. Please ask to
see this checklist and help him/her
make sure that each item is covered.
I hope you have a safe and enjoyable
weekend. I am not giving home practice
this weekend EXCEPT to finish their research papers. We started researching
these over two weeks ago. They should
be finished by now.
We will continue to work on PLAYS and
reading comprehension along with
Math patterns and functions .
Have a great weekend.

NOTE
Ideas for Summer Day or
Weekend Trips
Some of you might be interested
in some ideas for day or weekend
trips with your child. Some fun
things to do with your kids might include:
A trip to Corydon. Your child should
be able to tell you about the historical places in Corydon, IN. The
Capitol Building, Zimmerman Art
Glass, the Constitution Elm, The old
house and law office. You could
even picnic in the park at Hays
Wood Park.
all kinds of exhibits, shows, and a movie theater. This beautiful building is also directly in front of the canal reconstruction that you can walk along and
enjoy the weather. This is certainly a
must visit if you have a day for Indianapolis.
The Eideljorg Museum is an amazing
place right next door where you can
see beautiful exhibits on Native Americans. Cool place.
The NCAA museum is also on the other
side of the state museum. It used to
cost only $3 for a tour. Kind of neat
and quick for sports fans.
A trip to The Indiana Children’s Museum in Indianapolis. This is a wonderful place that has a carousel, water play area—not swimming area
but one to work with water and
boats, a full size train, a large dinosaur exhibit e, and many other
things !!! We used to take students
there and they were kept busy for
quite some time!
The Indiana State Museum and Eideljorg Native American Museum in
downtown Indianapolis. The state
museum is a great place to visit with
