Over the weekend:

By
-History: Complete step #3 on the purple checklist - revise and edit your 5 paragraph rough draft. Say more. Expand your thoughts and discussion. Add more detail and information. Grow your paragraphs. Then have a parent or older sibling read the paper and help you edit it for mistakes in spelling, capitalization, grammar, and punctuation. Bring all your work in on Monday, and we'll start typing final drafts in class on Chromebooks via Google Docs.

-GeoBee: Congratulations to our winners in today's class-level National Geographic Bee - Jaeda, Ava, Michael, Lili, Tessie, Kameko, and Levi (alternate)! They'll move on to compete against the winners of each grade in the School-Level Preliminary Bee which will be held on Wednesday, December 19 at 12:45 in the cafeteria. Parents are invited!

-Top Secret Santa: Students drew names today for our holiday gift exchange that will take place next Thursday, December 20. Please limit presents to around $10, and wrap/ bag the gift without a "To:" name indicated. Gifts can be brought into class anytime until Thursday.

Welcome to the TCS 4th Grade Blog!

Hello to all the incoming 4th grade students and parents at Taos Charter! I hope you've all have had a fantastic summer break. I really enjoyed mine too, but I'm glad to be back working in the classroom and excited to kick off another school year with this new group of kids. School starts Monday, August 17th at 8:15 AM. Fourth grade supply lists are available in the office or at the TCS website in the "For Parents" section. It's not necessary for everyone to have all the supplies on the first day. Pencils, folders, and composition books are the most important items. Until then, get outside, have some fun, and make the most of your last days of break. I'll see you bright and early on Monday! Our TCS Welcome Back Pot-Luck is Friday, August 14th from 5:30 to 7:00pm if you can make it. Thanks for taking the time to find and read our 4th grade blog! Please be sure to bookmark it into your links. -Mr. Michael Bonner email: mbonner@taoscharterschool.org

Welcome Parents and Students!

You've found it, Mr. Bonner's Blog! This is my very first foray into this realm of communication, so check back for more soon as I start to figure it all out. It's my plan to use this space to post weekly spelling lists, math assignments, project information, announcements, and educational links. Students, if you read this post, tell me the secret code: "Prime Meridian," in a whisper the next time you see me in class. That way I'll know you were here. Parents, if you're able to find this, please post a comment to let me know i'ts working. And I'm always looking for worthwhile educational links for kids. Share your links with me and I'll post them here. Also, bookmark this link into your computer so you can check back. If students and parents are using this blog, I'll update the posts on a weekly basis. Como siempre, Mr. Michael Bonner
