This week started off with a look back at our countries history and a moment of silence to honor 9-11. We also had a fabulous book brought in that shared a wonderful story about a hero that helped save others on this tragic day. The students seemed to learn a lot!
In math this week we are going to be working on addition and subtraction as well as looking at word problems. In reading we are continuing to look at literature circle jobs, character traits, conflicts, etc. We are doing these things while reading Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing. In writing we are looking at paragraphs. We are looking at what proper paragraph format looks like and they are going to be focusing on what makes grandparents important. We also started science this week and are looking at motion and energy as well as scientific method. We started today with a pretty cool experiment that you should ask your child about!
Don't forget Wednesday, September 13 is Picture Day. Send your student ready to go. We usually go first thing in the morning to ensure they are done before specials at 9:35. If you have any questions or concerns please contact your students teacher.
Our PBS skill this week is Be Respectful to the Speaker.
