I can't wait to meet you; we are going to have so much fun together. Our blog has some important information for you and your family. To the right under important documents you will find a letter to you and one to your parents. Please take a minute and read the "Summer Letter for Students," and ask your parent to read the "Summer Letter for Parents". There is important information in both of these documents (including information about a science project we will be doing)! Under important documents, you will also find a "Suggested Supply List," in case you misplaced the one that was in your report card at the end of third grade.
The name of our blog is "Ladybugs on Learning". I hope you will find this page helpful for both parents and students. If you are new to our blog, welcome! If you are a returning guest, welcome back! I'd like to share a few things with you, to guide you through using our blog.
- Comments are welcome on our blog ~ from families as well as from our students. You can find some instructions on how to best comment in the sidebar to the right. Please follow the instructions and comment away!
- I have posted some links to important information to the right as well. You will find summer letters to both parents and students, as well as the suggested supply list for incoming Fourth Graders. You will also see our class handbook, which is currently being updated.
- I try to post updates to our blog on Fridays, and very often include pictures or videos of our week. I also try to include links(games, study guides, videos, etc.) which could help students with homework or studying. If you would like to follow our blog by email, there are two options. You can enter your email in the "Follow by Email" gadget, or you can become a "Follower". Both of these options are in the section on the right.
- If you or other members of your family speak a different language, I've included a translator gadget to the right. This will help families from around the world to keep updated with your child's school activities.
- I know some of you are anxious about starting a new class with a new teacher. If you don't know me, my name is Mrs. Merten! I have a link at the top entitled "Meet Mrs. Merten". If you visit that link, you will learn a little about me and my family.
- Below are a few pictures of our classroom. I hope you enjoy seeing where you will be learning this year!
