    I hope everyone had a safe weekend.  Please take a few minutes to review this week’s weekly report. Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me. Have a fantastic week 😊.

    • Thank you for returning your Federal Impact card.  I received all 25, which was extremely exciting.

     

    • Please review, sign, and return your child’s interim report tomorrow.  For individual grades and assignments, please log on to PowerSchool.

     

    • I am in need of 2-liter sodas for fall festival (soda ring toss). Thank you to those parents that have donated already.

     

    Below is what we are learning this week:

    Math: This week begins one of the most important topics in fourth grade - MULTIPLICATION. All math concepts from this point forward will build on multiplication, and it is imperative that your child knows his/her facts and is reviewing them each night.  There will be a lesson quiz on Friday. Please ensure your child is completing homework each night and that all homework has work shown for each problem. I cannot assist your child with understanding his/her mistakes, if they have no work on their paper. Homework that is missing work will result in a deduction of 10 points.

    ELA (Reading/Writing/Word Study):  Students will have a break this week from chapter book reading/questions.  We will begin our new book next Tuesday, which is one of my all-time favorites – The Legend of Sleepy Hollow.  We will continue with point of view – first person, second person, and third person (limited, omniscient, and objective).  Students will also be learning about abstract/concrete nouns; singular and plural nouns; and pronouns.

    Science:  We will begin our next unit- Earth in the Universe. Students will learn how fossils were created; how plant and animal fossils can tell about life long ago; and how the earth’s changes due to slow processes such as erosion, weathering, and volcanic eruptions.
