Week of October 3rd

Welcome to another great week in 4th grade! 

This week we continue to work on comprehension and fluency in our reading.   In Spelling we are focusing on Long and Short a sounds in our words.  Our test will be Tuesday, October 11th - this gives students plenty of time to study even with our shorter week this week. 

In math we are working on problem solving with multi-digit addition and subtraction.  We will be moving forward with multiplication starting next week.  Now is a great time to brush up on those multiplication facts!!  Check out the Homework page to the right for a link to many multiplication games students can play online to brush up on their skills. Another way to study is to make flashcards and review 10 or so nightly adding more as your students shows that he or she knows them well!

Book orders went home on Monday.  There are lots of great choices for the 4th graders!  I have also added our code so that families may order online if they wish.  For every online order we earn a free book for our class! You are welcome to send your paper order in to the classroom as well. Orders are due October 18th.  Please see this week's email for our online code and a link to the Scholastic website.

Please be sure your students are writing down their nightly reading and completing homework.  Students should be writing down their assignments daily in the classroom.  Check out the homework page if you are unsure of the daily assignments.

Have a great week!  Check back soon for pictures of students learning in 4th grade!
