Academic and Creative Excellence Program

Fourth Grade

2009-2010

I will be pulling the ACE students once a week from their Language Arts class. During this time our class will be participating in a variety of units. The first is a mystery unit that I will be teaching in collaboration with Mr. Easton. This unit will take place during the first and second nine weeks of school. You will be receiving a description of this unit soon. Please be aware that this unit of study may require the students to complete some work on their own time. I realize that ACE is extra, so I try to keep these assignments simple. If these ACE assignments should become a problem, please do not hesitate to call me. Thanks in advance for your help.

During the first nine weeks, I will be working with the ACE students on odd days, so that means the day for pull-out is not the same from week to week. For example, it will alternate between Monday and Tuesday, whichever is an even numbered day, at GWES and between Wednesday and Thursday at NKES. Please let me know if you have any questions about the schedule.

On even days I work with the ACE students at New Kent Middle School. Since I am located at three schools the best way to contact me is through e-mail, RGregory@nkcps.k12.va.us, or voice mail, 966-9660 extension 3020. Please don’t hesitate to contact me with any of your questions regarding the ACE Program.
