We had another great week in 4th grade. Thank you for your collaboration on the MAP testing this week. I really appreciate your support as parent proctors, thank you! I will communicate test results with you once I have them.
Math: From Ms. Martin Students will read and write multi-digit whole numbers using expanded, standard and word form and study place value. They will continue to look at math with a growth mindset using math tasks
Reading: We will continue our novel study of Bunnicula. A novel study is the process of reading (studying) a text together. I am reading aloud Bunnicula and modeling many reading strategies. Students are using this text to practice comprehension, and other concepts like cause/effect, summarizing, making inferences, and so much more.
Social Studies: In preparation for using our social studies text for our study of Washington State the students will be learning about text features.
Religion: We will continue to build community and work together for the common good.
Vocabulary: Students will be introduced to the root “un” and given a set of vocabulary words to practice for the week.
Writing: Our focus will be on expanding sentences and writing solid narrative paragraphs. They will have 3 practice paragraphs during the week and will choose their favorite to edit and turn in on Friday. Turn in can happen in two ways. 1. Google docs- students who feel confident with using google docs may use the document I provide and submit it through google classroom. 2. Students may write a final copy in their writing notebook, take a picture of it, and submit it via email.
Art begins this week for our students on Wednesday, morning from 9:15-10.
