Title I Parent Meeting Coming Soon
On Friday, May 27th, there will be a Title I Parent Meeting at Swift River School to discuss ways to keep your child reading and writing over the summer. Research states that children who continue to read and write over the summer maintain or even increase their skills. The meeting will take place in my classroom from 8:30-9:15. Your child will be bringing home an invitation. Please fill out the bottom and send back to school with your child to let me know if you will or will not be attending. Hope to see you all the end of the month! I enjoy working with your child!

Fourth Grade Students Create Voki to Tell About Invention
Just before vacation, my fourth grade students were reading about inventions in the Scott Foresman Reading Street program. I decided to have them research an invention and then write a summary to share with the others. I decided to have them create their own Voki and then have the Voki speak the summary. They seemed to enjoy creating their Voki and seeing it displayed on my classroom blog. It didn't take long to do and was a lot of fun! Take a look, you will find them below this post. I am glad that I have set up my clasroom blog. This will be a great place to showcase student work and thanks to our Technology Teacher, Christine, parents and students can get right to my blog from the Swift River School page under links.
