So sorry for the delay on updates! Here is what is happening in our class this week:
Math: Fortson math class is working with decimals. Students will have several homework assignments. Please check the agenda for specifics. All other classes are working on fractions. This is a foundational skill and one that we need our fourth graders to master. Please check with your child about homework assignments. Most students are assigned homework during the week.
Reading: Status of the Class will be Friday. Students should be reading nightly. We have a weekly work plan that is due on Friday. This week's plan is heavy on comprehension activities, so students should use their time wisely to complete this by Friday. They have the option take any work home on Thursday night if they feel they need additional time to stay on track.
ELA: (see Reading update)
Writing: We are doing daily Quick Writes this week. Our focus will be on Social Studies related content to review.
Science: We started our new unit, weathering and erosion. I will be updating our page this week. There will be many helpful resources there for you to use. We are doing center rotations one day this week in each class. Students have the opportunity to finish any centers by Friday when free time allows.
Social Studies: Students are using the SS weekly 20 each day in my reading class. They will have a comprehension test over this on Friday. It will count for SS and for Reading. It is open book.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION:
-Valentine's exchange will be on Friday, February 12th. Lists were given to each student.
-TN Ready testing begins next week. We will test over SS, ELA (writing this part) and math. We will test one morning each of the next 3 weeks.
