Important Reminder! Progress reports will be sent home Friday. On them, you will find their results from the STAR test they've taken, their AR goal, their current AR point total, and current grades for subjects. Please sign and return them next week. We will send them back home next week, but this helps us insure that they are showing them to you.
Half of your student's AR point goal is due on Friday. If they do not have at least half of their goal, they will be reading a recess. We do this to try to help them achieve their end of the quarter goal without falling far behind.
In reading this week we will begin Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing. We will use this book to help us continue to learn about the elements of a story and plot. We will continue with our literature circle discussions.
In spelling this week, we are studing the open syllables (vv) rule. We have started working with our new list today and will finish with a test THIS FRIDAY.
In writing, we are studying complete sentences by looking at subjects and predicates. We are also beginning to write using our 5 senses in order to include a lot of detail in our writing.
In math this week, we will begin working with multiplication facts and becoming more fluent with addition and subtraction. We will also discuss using the operations to solve word problems that can be solved using several different strategies.
