Welcome to our website! *** Remember the special bond referendum election on Tuesday, September 29, 2009. Don't forget to vote.*** I have information under the homework and links sections. The links feature two outstanding math websites. Both sites are great for practicing addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division facts. You can use the sites to play games and make your own worksheets for extra practice. In addition, there is a link to National Geographic's Geopspy game, which helps kids practice the locations of the continents and oceans,and other interesting pages related to the curriculum. Check out the Classics for Kids site- there's lots of great music and interesting stuff about great composers. As the year goes on, I will update the links page with good Websites related to our fourth-grade curriculum as I find them. Thanks for visiting! Special Food Update: We at Chittick are working hard to teach everybody about healthful eating habits. Everyday snacks should be healthy- no cookies, cake, soda, or candy. Here are some suggestions from Mr. Decker on what you can send in for parties: Cupcakes (no candy topping) Cookies Chips Fruit Vegetable trays Crackers Pretzels Popcorn (not candy coated) PLEASE NOTE- Cakes and cookies are for special occasions only, not for everyday snacks. Also, district policy requires that all food brought in for the class to eat be store bought. Homemade items will not be served at class parties. Thank you for your understanding. Also, we cannot eat or distribute candy in school, so please do not include candy in anything that the children might give out to classmates, such as Valentines.
