Thank you!

Dear Fourth Grade Families,

Thank you for the extraordinary generosity you extended to me this Christmas.  I am very thankful for the gift card and I promise that I will put it to excellent use towards something special for our classroom.  Thanks too for the restaurant gift card.  It will be such a treat to take my husband out to dinner.  Working with your students really has been a gift in and of itself.  These presents are just the icing on the cake!

I hope you all enjoy a very restful and fun vacation week.  I look forward to coming back rested myself.  Vacations are always a wonderful time to recharge my battery.  However, while away from the classroom, my brain is always working overtime thinking of the long list of goals yet to be realized and brainstorming exciting ways to get the students to meet these goals through problem solving, reading, writing, listening, and speaking.  January is always a very productive month in the classroom with very little interruption.  I'm looking forward to these busy days with the students.

Thanks for all that you've done this year to support the learning in our classroom.  I'm looking forward to a very successful 2016 with the students!

Happy New Year!

Mrs. Brigham
