Dear Parents/Guardians,
The fourth graders continue to work hard at school, and put forth their best efforts! In math we have finished up our geometry unit, and are going to begin our unit on understanding whole numbers and operations. In this unit students will work with place value and number sense, comparing and ordering numbers, adding and subtracting whole numbers, and algebra. In science we are learning about adaptations, how animals bodies’ and behaviors help them meet their needs, and comparing living things today with those of the past. Then, we will move on to learning about Energy Transfer in Ecosystems. In communication arts we are working on questioning, predicting, visualizing when reading. When quarter 2 begins we will begin to learn about making inferences. In writing we have finished publishing our personal narratives. We will begin working on writing a persuasive piece soon. Spelling is up and running. We are working on skills as groups that should transfer over into your student’s writing. Make sure your student is reading nightly!
Sincerely,
Miss Zelle
