Writing/Spelling
In writing this past week, we celebrated our informational books! All of our hard work paid off because they turned out awesome! We got to rotate to all of the fourth grade classrooms and read our friends' books! We commented on great things that the authors did. In Spelling, students will receive new word sorts. The next spelling test will be Friday, March 13th.
Reading
This past week, we started our book clubs! Book clubs meet twice a week, on Wednesdays and Fridays. Students are responsible for filing out the assigned book club role sheets (discussed in an earlier post) and in reading the assigned chapters before every meeting date. Students impressed me with their deep conversations about their books in our very first week of book clubs! Keep up the good work!
Math
The Chapter 9 Test is Monday, March 2nd. Students have study guides. In Chapter 10, we will add decimals to our study of fractions.
Science
We explored current electricity in science this past week. We had a lot of fun building circuits with a variety of materials such as wires, batteries, light bulbs, and switches! Don't forget- students can click here to log on to the science textbook and complete activities for extra credit.
