Happy Friday!!! One more week until spring break!! :)
Writing: In writing this week we finished publishing our informational books about a topic of the kiddo's choice. They did such an awesome job creating posters and slide shows that complimented their amazing writing! They had so much fun at our Expert Fair on Wednesday and were so proud of their hard work. Thanks so much to all who were able to make it, it meant so much to them! We began our next unit on poetry yesterday. Today we went outside and practiced using our senses for inspiration.
Reading: In reading this week we wrapped up our poetry unit. We studied alliteration and practiced dissecting a poem to find the bigger and deeper meaning that the poet was trying to get across to their audience. We will be beginning a test preparation unit next week!
Social Studies: Today will be the last day for our interactive Oregon Trail game. The kids have been using teamwork to travel along the game board and complete each obstacle. Our winner will be announced today! We are looking forward to learning about the Civil War starting next week.
Math: In math this week we practiced converting using the Metric System. The kiddos will have a combined test that covers the Metric and Customary systems today. We have also had several students complete their fourth grade ALEKS pie this week. I love to see their dedication to improving as a math student! Way to go!!

Miss DiFranco
