Math
The
students have been working on multi-digit addition and subtraction. They have also been working on using
reasoning skills to know which operation to use when solving word problems and
working on being able to tell if their answer is reasonable by using rounding
and estimating. They completed the
assessment on these skills and will begin working on multiplication skills next
week.
Reading
This
past week the fourth graders have been practicing and performing readers
theater scripts to practice fluency.
Next week they will be working on finding the sequence of events in
their reading.
Halloween
On Friday, October 30th,
the 4th graders will be having a Halloween party at school from
1:50-2:40. The students will be allowed
to wear a costume for the party if they would like to dress up. We ask that the students bring the costume to
schools with them in the morning, but not wear them until it is time for the
party. We would like them to plan on putting their costume on over the clothes
they wear to school, so we ask that they plan accordingly. We ask that costumes
are non-violent (no weapons, blood, etc.).
We also ask that the students not have face paint or colored hair spray
for the school party. We have a limited
amount of time to have the students change into costumes, so we would
appreciate costumes that the students can change into quickly.
