4B NEWSLETTER

    Dear Fourth Grade Parents,

        What a wonderful beginning to the month of February. It

    is a pleasure to see the students enjoying recess in the mild

    temperatures we have been having. 

         Catholic Schools Week was a big success.  4B enjoyed

    displaying their work for all who came to visit the school. I

    was very proud of the students who participated in the Poetry

    Reading and Spelling Bee.  Congratulations to Emily LeHane for

    winning First Place in the Poetry Reading.  Congratulations goes

    out to William Oldenhage for First Place in the Spelling Bee.

         Fourth Grade students were able to be present for the

    Middle School Geography Bee.  Many 4B students have said

    they would like to participate next year!  The week concluded

    with a special Mass, with many 4B students partipating in the

    chior.

         Upcoming events for 4B will be the Terra Nova testing

    beginning March 5.  Information on this will be sent next

    week.  4B and 4W will be going to the Newark Museum on

    March 29.  We will be attending the Planetarium and a hands

    activity at the museum.  We have visited the museum in the

    past, and it was a wonderful learning experience for the

    Fourth Grade students.

         4B will be celebrating Valentine's Day on Tuesday,

    February 14.  Students are allowed to bring in cards to

    exchange with their classmates.  The class will have a small

    snack.  If candy is passed out, it will be sent home in a goody

    bag, along with the cards.

         As always, thank you for all your support. I truly enjoy 

    spending each day with this wonderful class!

    Mrs. Borghoff

           Sincerely,

           Mrs. Borghoff
