Dear Fourth Grade All-Star,

 

Welcome to the 4MS Family! We hope you are having a wonderful summer. We can’t wait to meet you on the first day of school! There are so many exciting things we will be learning and doing together this year. Fourth Grade is a very special and important year. It is a year that requires more responsibility and higher expectations in the classroom. We are so happy that we get to guide and support you during this exciting time in your life.

 

We look forward to getting to know you and learning about your interests! Here are some things that Mrs. Marion enjoys.  She loves spending time with her family and friends. She has a five year old son named Wyatt who is starting Kindergarten this year and an almost two year old daughter named Sylvia. She also has two German Shepherd dogs named Loki and Nala. In her free time, her family loves to be outside and play on their property. Wyatt and Sylvia love to play in the creek that runs through their yard. She also enjoys reading and traveling to new places. This summer, her and her family traveled to the Outer Banks in North Carolina and to the Catskills. 

 

Mrs. Stevens also had some great adventures this summer! She went to New Orleans, Greece, and Massachusetts. Mrs. Stevens’ parents are from Greece, so it was very special to visit with her family and meet a bunch of relatives for the first time! She can’t wait to hopefully go back soon. When Mrs. Stevens isn’t traveling, she loves spending time in Lambertville, where she lives. Mrs. Stevens and her husband enjoy the restaurants and the ice-cream, but their favorite part is the Delaware River! This summer, they spent a lot of time walking the towpath, reading on the banks, and tubing down the river! Mrs. Stevens loves being outside, so some of her favorite past-time activities include: hiking, yoga, and watching sunrises/sunsets! We can't wait to hear about everything you like to do!

 

 We will begin our school year by getting to know each other and learning about our school, classroom, and our 4th grade routines. For the first day of school, we would like you to bring in a summer "souvenir" that represents something you did this summer. This will be a fun way to get to know each other!

 

 

*The first day of school is Thursday, September 7th. 

*Please bring in a healthy snack to eat and a bottle of water with your name on it. 

*We have all of your Back to School supplies for you. You don't need to buy any supplies for the start of the year.

*We will have Gym every Monday, so please remember to wear your sneakers!

 

 

Enjoy the rest of your summer! We will see you very soon.  We are looking forward to a great year together!

 

Your Fourth Grade Teachers, 

Mrs. Marion and Mrs. Stevens
