This is a rubric I use when assessing grade 3 or 4 paragraphs. It looks at topic, details and grammar. I simply highlight their level so I can see it clearer. As I've copied 2 on one page, you could attach this to the students work.

I use this rubric to assess my grade 4 recount stories. (checking for the main idea, organization, transitions, conventions)I sometimes give the students the rubric and have them assess their own work.

I like sending a newsletter home to parents after the first day of school to introduce myself and how things run in my class. This is a sample of a September newsletter to parents.

This is a newsletter I send home to parents on the first week of grade four in preparation for the coming year. Included: *what supplies are needed *good mental health *classroom rules *homework expectations *communication through agendas *safe home arrival Can be editted to suit your own classroom.
