Space Background with Welcome

Welcome to the 4-2 Classroom Website!

Students,

The year is winding down.  Now is the time to start reviewing for your final assessments which start before the Memorial Day Weekend!  Please review all items on study guides and make sure you have mastered these concepts and ideas.

Check the online gradebook to make sure you have turned in all assignments and missing work.  A spring cleaning of your folders may be necessary to locate missing papers and assignments.

All articles must be published on the 4-2 Ocean Blue News:  Halloween Writing, Persuasive Essay, News Article

We are in need of paper towels and tissues for our classroom.  We would appreciate any donations.  Thank you!
