This Week in 4th Grade...

One Round of MCAS Over!

Students worked extremely hard on the ELA MCAS last Thursday and Friday.  It was challenging and required a ton of hard work but no one gave up, everyone used their strategies and we couldn't be more proud of our community!  


The Math MCAS is coming up on May 7th and 8th.  Please do not schedule any appointments or other activities that may force your child to be out of school on those days.

Math Workshop

We are continuing to work on reviewing the skills we have learned this year.  On Monday, the kids will get their "game faces on."  Then they will be assigned to a team.  They will work in teams to solve some word problems throughout the week.  As a team they will earn points and even some LL Bucks! 

We will continue to work on decimals.  Last week we used money to think about decimals.  The kids were excited to see the connection between math and money.  This week we will work on ordering decimals and comparing decimals.

Reader's Workshop

This week students will dive back into non-fiction and research skills.  We will wrap up our research on the Southeast and put the finishing touches on our Prezi presentations.  Students have been very engaged with these projects and are looking forward to sharing their learning with one another!
