4th Grade Poets!
On Tuesday, we joined Mrs. Murphy's class to read lots of different kinds of poetry books. We then wrote our own poems in the style of the ones we read.

Teddies are on their way!
We are about to send our teddies out into the world! How exciting! Our official Send-Off is Thursday, November 14th at 2:30 (parents, feel free to come). Until then, everything you need to know about the teddies is below. A paper version is also coming home today (Tuesday). Please let me know if you have any questions! (kmehlin@topsfieldps.org)
Dear
Parents,
Dear
Parents,
As you probably know, we are beginning the fourth grade Teddy Bear project. The teddy bear send-off is Thursday, November 14th at 2:30. Parents are welcome to attend and help the students bid their bears farewell. Below is a checklist of what your child and you need to do to prepare for the send-off:
q Select
a responsible person in another state to receive “Teddy.” Please try to let the
person know in advance about the project. Also, try to keep it in this country
since the purpose is to learn about the regions in our country.
q Get
a box sturdy enough for Teddy to travel in, but not too big.
q Pack
Teddy, his journal (the journal will be completed in school) and anything else
you want to send along with him in the box.
q Wrap
it all up and address it.
q Bring
it to the Post Office in town and alert them that you are sending a bear as
part of the Proctor Bear Project. They are aware of the Teddy Bear Project,
but remind them that only stamps should be attached.
q Prepay
the postage, but don’t leave the box with the Post Office. They’ll pick it up
at the send-off.
q Bring
the stamped, postmarked, wrapped box to school by November
14th.
Thank you.
Sincerely,
The Fourth
Grade Teachers
We're coming!!!!!!
