WELCOME TO FOURTH GRADE NEWS
We’re very excited to be working with your child this year! We know that 4th grade will be a new challenge, but we have many activities planned to help make this transition successful. This year your child will have 3 different teachers. He/She will have Mrs. Dingledine for Science, Mrs. Bostick for Math, and either Mrs. Sukel or Mr. Amlin for Language Arts and Social Studies. Many students will also work with our intervention specialist, Mrs. Monroe, and our enrichment specialist, Mrs. Person.
Things to Look For:
*Student Handbook – Your child has been given a Student Handbook and it can also be accessed on our school website. Please be sure to read this thoroughly with your child. Wilder has 4 core values: Respect, Responsibility, Restraint, and Recognizing the Rights and Property of others. These are very important to your child’s success at our school. Please also become familiar with our Homework Policy. We have a program designed so that your child never gets behind more than 2 assignments. We take homework very seriously at Wilder.
*Monday Folders – Parents can expect to have a folder sent home on the first day of each week from Mrs. Dingledine, Mrs. Bostick, and Mrs. Sukel. These folders will contain your child’s current work/weekly newsletter and any important announcements. You will be asked to sign your child’s folder each week. Students in Mr. Amlin’s class will be assigned a classroom mailbox from which they will be expected to collect graded papers, forms to be signed, and notices about upcoming events.
*Assignment Books/Homework Folder – You should expect your child to bring home his/her assignment book with written assignments and a homework folder every day.
Please feel free to contact us at anytime throughout the year with any new information or concerns about your child. Our goal is to communicate and be a partner in your child’s education.
