Students in Ms. Turano and Mrs. Regan’s fourth grade class at Central Boulevard Elementary School in Bethpage celebrated Thoughtful Thursday by writing a letter to the incoming fourth graders on Thursday, May 16.
Mrs. Regan instructed students to write a letter that they themselves would like to read coming into their first day of school to ease their anxieties and nerves and to help them get excited about their upcoming year.
“They come in so nervous, so it’s nice that the new class can come in and have something to read on their first day,” said Mrs. Regan.
Ms. Turano helped the students brainstorm topics that they could write about in their letters such as what they learned this year and what makes the fourth grade so special.
“This is a great way to provide our fourth graders an opportunity to reflect on the year as they welcome the new incoming class,” said Ms. Turano.
