A Letter to Our Parents and Students: Dear Parents and Students, The fourth-grade teachers

A Letter to Our Parents and Students: Dear Parents and Students, The fourth-grade teachers are grateful for all that was accomplished during week 1 of our learning plan! We hope that the first week of learning at home went well! We are so proud of how hard the students are working and how well they are adjusting to this new adventure! We are lucky to have such amazing fourth graders! Continue to keep up the good work! We are ready for week 2 and hope that you are, too! If students haven't finished turning in their work from last week, please make sure they complete Khan Academy, Read Works, and all 6 assignments in Teams (2 ELA, 2 spelling, 2 science). Please note that teachers are viewing all student progress on all websites to see how students are performing. Khan Academy assignments should be completed in order. We have updated this week's assignments to match what the students view on their end. Please watch the videos before completing the activities and quizzes. Read Works has the option for the text to be read to the students. There are comprehension questions to answer after reading the text. Students should be using the text to help them answer the questions. If students receive 50% or lower, it will be reassigned. Please make sure you check the comments on Power. School to see if the assignments need to recompleted. Parents, please start checking Power. School to see your child's work completion for each subject each week. Please remember, at this time we are not taking letter grades – we are monitoring completion. Assignments may have a comment with more information, so please monitor the comments, as well. Since Monday was originally a day off school, we do not have a learning plan page for that day. Your child is welcome to participate in any of their online websites. Fridays will be considered "Flexible Friday" and will be a day for students to catch up on any incomplete work or for them to go on any of the optional websites listed for that day. For assignments on Teams, please make sure your child clicks on the assignment -> clicks edit in browser/desktop -> types in assignment -> make sure it says 'save' at the top -> closes out of the assignment -> clicks the 'turn in' button. Please watch this video on how to turn an assignment in on Microsoft Teams: Turning in Assignments on Teams Video. We will continue to be available each day on Microsoft Teams and via email. Please do not hesitate to reach out to us with any questions or concerns you have throughout this unprecedented time. We are here to support you in any way we can. Take Care, Fourth Grade Teachers mfish@summithill. org jkane@summithill. org rmillner@summithill. org jreno@summithill. org broach@summithill. org
