Good Morning!
We want to welcome everyone back to school after our break! We hope everyone had a restful and fun times with their families. We will have the all school geography bee this week on Friday afternoon. We had one winner from each fourth grade class and those 2 will represent us- we wish them a lot of luck!
This week in...
Reading: We will read the story The Stranger by Chris Van Allsburg. He writes such great fantasy stories and we will take a look at his other stories and see if we can find a common theme.
Langauge Arts: The students will begin a writing piece on cats. They will be using different research techniques to gather information.
Social Studies: We are in the middle of Chapter 5 and will have a quiz over lesson 2 on Wednesday. A test should be coming up soon- possibly the end of next week!
Math: The students are continuing their mulitiplication and multilpying big numbers with zeros. Practice, Practice, PRACTICE (did we say practice?) FACTS!!! :)
Science: They are learning about closed and open circuits- so lots of light switching on and off in the science classroom this week! Students can stay ahead by studying science vocabulary!
Spelling: Lesson 17
Religion: We are looking at ways that Jesus treated humans with dignity and how we can do the same. We are also going to "ring" in the New Year by making some goals and resolutions!
Enjoy your week!
Mrs. Carbone and Miss Winter
