Welcome Letter 2023-2024






Dear Up-and-Coming Fourth Graders:


 I hope you are having a sensational summer vacation. I am excited to be your fourth-grade teacher and I am happy to get back to school! We will be learning about many important concepts across the curriculum in grade four, and studying such units as the State of Maine and Ecology. You will read many new books, experiment with mathematical algorithms, and investigate the scientific world from a new, more advanced perspective. 


We are excited to share that  Mrs. Bucci and I will be co-teaching our math and reading curriculums. I will be teaching math and Mrs. Bucci will be teaching reading. Students will be given the opportunity to transition from one classroom to another each morning. The curriculum will remain the same as in years past; it will just be provided by two teachers with expertise in each area instead of one. 


We are very excited to be meeting all of our students and will be working on building a strong community between the two classrooms.  We have a variety of activities including games, arts and crafts, and social events to promote new friendships. 



Supply List:

 Please label all your supplies with your first and last name

 1 1” binder

 2 composition books

 1 package of 3x3 Post-it note pads

 1 dozen pencils

 1 package of colored pencils/crayons (one or the other or both if you want) 

 1 pair of scissors

 1 glue stick

 1 manual pencil sharpener

 3 pocket folders

 Water bottle

 1 pencil box or container to hold supplies

 1 pair of earbuds or headphones - only those with a straight plugin. The angled ones won’t fit   with the case on the iPads. Please have the headphones in a plastic bag labeled with your name.


 



For our classroom, please consider donating one or more of the following. Thank you!

 1 roll of paper towels

 1 box of Kleenex

 1 box of  quart or gallon Ziploc bags

 1 package of Disinfectant wipes 



I can't wait to meet you and embark upon our exciting year of learning together. Enjoy your last days of summer vacation, get some rest, and prepare yourself for a terrific year. If you or your parents have any questions feel free to contact me by e-mail at ctweedie@capeelizabethschools.org.

Here is a link to our class page. This will be updated throughout the year.

MYSTERY OF THE UNKNOWN VALENTINE

The mystery valentine is at it again! This time someone has invited you to a Valentine’s Day party, but only if you can solve the clues and figure out who this mystery person is, as well as when and where the party will take place!
This morning we did this fun breakout with Mr. Charltray.
