Congratulations!  You made it to room 203.  I welcome you all with open arms.  I am excited to meet every single new fourth grader.  However, before we get to know each other, there are some school rules and classroom policies that need to be addressed.  I know, I know.... every year your new teacher goes over the same rules and you feel as fourth graders you know it all!  Yet, I am here to tell you that every classroom is ran differently, so it is important that you know how
I would like to conduct our classroom.
