Happy Friday!! We had a busy week in 4th grade!
Writing: We decorated our writing notebooks and launched our writing workshop! We are going to be focusing on realistic fiction during our first unit. We have begun using strategies to gather realistic fiction story ideas.
Reading: We also began our reading workshop this week. We are focusing on how we can pick books that are just right for us (not too easy or too hard). We talked about how we can read intensely by paying close attention to each detail and by putting ourselves IN the story.
Math: This week we practiced our procedures for our math workshop and it will get underway on Monday! We are excited to jump into our first chapter focused on place value. Please encourage your child to practice their multiplication facts nightly!
**Each Friday students will be sent home with their Leadership Binder. This binder contains goals we are working on, our mission statements, and our weekly snapshot. The weekly snapshot gives students the opportunity to reflect on their behavior and academics throughout that week. Please look over the sheet with your child during the weekend and send the binder back to school on Mondays!**
Reminders:
9/3: Curriculum Night at 7 pm
Have a wonderful weekend!!!
Sincerely,
Miss DiFranco
