Merry Christmas to you and your families! May the holiday spirit be with you. I wish for you all a happy and healthy new year. Thank you! PS. I got all the children books as a Christmas gift, but sadly Scholastic was a little slow in delivering them. They will get them for sure when we return to school. :) Also, ask your students what I was supposed to dress up as today....:)

Referendum Information Opportunities: Watch for dates, times and locations! We will have this information on our website and in the Sawyer County Record You are encouraged to attend a session and get all of your questions answered. Keep Warm: Bundle your children up for these cold winter months! We got outside every day that it is above zero degrees. Warm coats, hats, mittens and boots are expected. Illness: We continue to experience a lot of illness this school year. Thank you for encouraging hand washing, healthy eating and rest! Please call our office if you have any questions and enjoy this Wisconsin Winter Wonderland!

There was a slight typo in the Christmas Party letter I sent home yesterday. The party will take place from 12:30-2 on Tuesday, December 22, 2015....not the 23....because I don't know about all of you, but I will be sleeping in and enjoying the first day of Christmas Break! :)

A long over due thank you to those who came to ring the bell with me last week. We had a wonderful time. If any of the moms have a picture, I'd love to have a copy! Helping Others Like a Cane!

Hello! :) The room will be open at 5:30 this evening, but no earlier. If you come to get a seat, please keep your student with you until 5:30. Thank you! Please also plan to stay the entire concert. It is a great show and important for the students to show respect to their other peers by listening to them sing too! Thank you!

Hello! Please be aware that some kiddos in the class have gotten the stomach flu and have missed school. Please take any necessary precautions to avoid the illness! :) We have sanitized the room as best we can. Thank you!

Reminder that the winter sing is Tuesday, December 15 at 6:00pm. Please have your child ready and in the classroom at 5:45pm. They will leave their stuff in the room or their locker. With that being said, the doors to the 4th grade hallway will be locked and no one will be able to open them until the end of the concert. So, please plan on staying through the whole concert and enjoy all the hard work the whole school and Mrs. Wood have put in to this awesome show!

Hello! Please remember that there is some online math help that is available through the 4th grade math blog. The link is below. This blog has videos of either Mrs. Marienfeld or myself teaching the lesson. It is very helpful, so please check it out. 4th Grade Math Blog

Here in fourth  grade we are for sure going to have warm hearts, hands and heads this winter season! Concor Tool and Machine graciously donated a pair of mittens and a hat to each 4th grader in Sawyer County! Hayward 4th graders were lucky enough to be among those who received this awesome donation. The kiddos were so excited and I see them wearing their hats and gloves daily. What an awesome experience. :) Thank you, Concor!

Hello! Please look for a letter in your child's assignment notebook talking about a bell ringing opportunity this year. The letter has a lot more detail in it, so read carefully. If your child is interested in ringing the bell for the Salvation Army with me please have your student at Marketplace at 4pm Monday, December 7, 2015. They will need to be picked up at 5pm sharp at the same location. Any questions, please let me know. Please send the permission slip back on or before Monday. :)
