• October 2025

    Dear Fourth Grade Parents,

    Welcome to October! We’ve made it through our first full month of school, and it’s so nice to see our class settling into a comfortable routine—whew!

    Each month, I’ll send home a short newsletter to keep you updated on upcoming events, classroom needs, and other important information. You can always find a copy posted on my classroom website: www.freemansd.org.
     Just go to Freeman Elementary → Teacher Pages → Angie Smith, and it will take you straight to my page.

     

    Please reply to this email…

    I’d love to hear how your 4th grader is doing! If you have a moment, please reply to this email or send a quick note to share any updates, concerns, or feedback. Your input is so valuable and appreciated.

     

     

    Grades

    This year is exciting (and a little new!)—your child will receive letter grades for the first time. I’ll send home grade checks every three weeks to help you stay in the loop.
     If something doesn’t look right, please reach out. I do my best to keep everything accurate, but mistakes can happen. Also, missing work can be turned in for credit to help raise grades.

     

    Classroom Needs / Amazon Wishlist

    Throughout the year, we go through many supplies to keep our classroom running smoothly. If you’d like to help, I’ve created an Amazon Wishlist with some of our most-needed items. Every contribution, big or small, makes a difference and is so appreciated!

    Thank you so much for supporting our classroom—it truly helps create a warm and engaging space for your children.
