Welcome to the Beginning of a Great Journey Together!


Welcome to 4th Grade with Ms. Launey, Ms. Lopez, Ms. Phillips, and Mr. Pinchot!

This year promises to be an incredible year of growth, reflection, and celebration of our knowledge as we embark on a very busy 180 day journey together and take our learning to new heights! To begin, we are very pleased to introduce you to a very special member of our learning community, our class mascot. Next week our students will help to decide on this very special bear's name! In addition, our mascot will begin having the opportunity to "travel" with our students as they attend special trips to faraway places with their families and friends during the course of the school year. This forum will help us learn about many new and special places in our state, our nation, and other parts of the globe! We are so excited to begin this journey "around the world in 180 days"!

I am so excited that our team is going to have a traveling mascot. What an exciting adventure that bear is going to have this year!

I agree, Meli. I am passionate about traveling, and I hope that our students and us will share lots of experiences about the world. I am so excited to embark on this adventure together with our 88 students. I think that we will all discover that it truly is "a small world after all", but a magnificent world with so much to learn. Pack your bags! We are going places!

I am very eager for our students to take our traveling bear on family trips so that I not only have the opportunity to learn about new and exciting places around the globe, but I will also learn more about our students and their families through the stories that are shared!
