Fourth Grade Distance Learning

Hello parents,
 
The intermediate teachers want to first share with you that we are praying for you and your children. These are unprecedented times, but we have our faith and we know that this too shall pass. This is a time for us to slow down and focus on the health of our community. We know that this is a different experience and as teachers who value planning we can relate to some uneasiness you may have about the recent school shut down, but we will continue to care for your families remotely and when we reconvene we will pick up where we left off, be flexible, and make adjustments necessary.
 
That said, we have worked together to come up with learning plans for your children that are accessible to you and will give them daily opportunities to sharpen their skills with minimal help.

”Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke on you and learn from me, because I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30For my yoke is easy to bear, and my load is not hard to carry.”
Matthew 7:28-30
