Mrs. Olson's 4th Grade Contact Information Alana Olson Email: aolson@onysd.wednet.edu Phone: 360-978-4111 About Me This is my third year teaching at OEMS. I taught 10 years in the North Thurston School District in Lacey, WA before coming to teach here in Onalaska. Other grades I have taught in my career are kindergarten, sixth grade, and fifth grade. This is my third year teaching fourth grade and I absolutely love it! I graduated from Onalaska in 1999, and then attended Saint Martin's University in Lacey, WA. Once I completed my education at Saint Martin's in 2004, I started teaching and coaching in the North Thurston District. I coached both basketball and fastpitch. I received my Masters Degree from Heritage University in 2010. My family and I live in Onalaska and we love being Loggers!

The challenge is for every student to read at least 30 books by the end of the school year. Each time a book is completed, the student meets with the teacher to discuss the book and complete any task that may be required. Students are given class time each day to work on the Reading Trail Challenge and meet with the teacher. They are also expected to work on this challenge at home. The at home reading log that is part of the weekly homework should reflect the books students are reading for the challenge. When a book is completed and the teacher has signed off, the student moves his/her marker to the next location on the Reading Trail board in our classroom! Happy reading!!! Homework Expectations Homework is sent home every Friday and is due the following Friday. It will always include the following items:
