Dear Fourth Graders and Parents,

Welcome to fourth grade!  I am so happy you are in my class this year! I can’t wait to meet you!    

I hope you are excited to begin fourth grade because this will be a fun, fabulous and fascinating year of learning!  Throughout the year, we will strengthen and expand our skills as readers, writers and mathematical problem-solvers as we tackle new concepts and challenges in all academic areas. 

Most importantly, please remember to bring your enthusiasm for learning, a positive attitude, sense of humor, caring heart and willingness to work hard.   With these qualities in place, we can accomplish fantastic feats in fourth grade! I can’t wait to get started!                                   

Your excited fourth grade teacher,

Ms. Diana Lopez Lupiac
