Welcome to Mr. Fureno's 4th Grade Web Page!



Message #1--Your child will be required to read 25 chapter books at their reading level during 4th grade. Tell your child to get a head start over the summer and read a few books before coming to school in September. Your child should be reading for atleast 20 minutes each day outside of school. If this is a problem, please contact me so we can work something out. These books should be at their reading level. A book should be completed about every 2 weeks. A book summary should be written for the first 11 books. The 25th book should be completed by April 16th.


Message #2--Your child is expected to know his/her addition, including doubles, subtraction, multiplication (up to 12 x 12), and division facts before entering 4th grade. Please work with your child on a nightly basis, to make sure he/she knows their facts without having to think about the answer. It will make life sooo much easier in 4th Grade Math this year. Thank You in advance for you cooperation!


Message #3--Please check your child's Homework Assignment Planner on a daily basis. Then please initial each homework assignment so that I know you have checked it, and the assignment is complete.

Message #4--We will be going to the Farmer's Museum in Cooperstown on Wednesday, November 18th.  Please have your child dress according to the weather.  Most of the workshops will be outside, and it tends to get quite chilly.  Old sneakers or boots are a good idea to wear on their feet.  A bag lunch is needed.  Please do not send in any glass.
