Dear Student and Parents,

I am so excited to start the year and I hope you are feeling the same! We
are in for an exciting journey.

I have been teaching fourth grade for 6 years and before that I was the
media specialist here at Shirley Hills for 7 years. I love reading, computers,
learning, and laughing. I have a blog that can be found at
http://4-1mrshenkelsclass.blogspot.com/. I have a schedule there,
information about me, and lots of stuff from last year. I am looking forward
to adding more this year.

Tuesday we will go over fourth grade rules and expectations. These
expectations are general guidelines of what I think are important but we can
take a look and decide how they’ll work for us this year. You can see a
current copy at http://shirleyhills4th.blogspot.com/. I’ll be sending home
more information once we finalize it together as a class.

I am almost positive we are about to start one of, if not your best year of
school. We will be exploring a new reading series together, as well as learn
about regions of the United States in Social Studies, investigate the Solar
System and magnets and electricity in science, tackle multiplication and long
division, and to top it all off Wolf Ridge in May. Whew!!!

Remember to call or email me if you have any questions or information that
you would like to discuss. I also would like to start an email group so if you
could return the attached sheet, I would really appreciate it!



Thanks,
Kristi Henkels
