Coming Up for the week of Sept. 6

Here is some of the things that we will be going over during our week of instruction:

Imagine It Reading: We will do a second read with Island of the Blue Dolphins. There will be a reading assessment on Wednesday. We will begin a new story on Thursday. Remember that the theme for this unit is "Risk and Consequences." Please remind your child that any time they see a risk or a consequence (on TV, outside, etc) to please write down what they saw to post on our concept board.

Math: Our math instruction will be focused on rounding and estimating numbers to the underlined digit or the place value. Rounding is a big part of our 4th grade math and continues to be seen through out the year.
**Reminder: Each Friday, there will be a 10 problem math assessment that covers much of what's been learned during the week.

Social Studies. We are starting in with Citizenship in NC. This lesson will take us to the three branches of government and how each one works with the other.
Along with our lessons, we will be intergrating a writing piece called "ABCs of North Carolina." This is a project that will take a bit of time and research, all of which will be primarily done in class. Be on the lookout for more information soon.

Science; Phases of the Moon and the Rotation of the Earth. The kids are working on note-taking and will hopefully be having some hands-on experiments and demonstrations.

Writing: Starting Tuesday, our class will be having a writing menu that takes place during their workshop time. The writing menu is a simple writing activity that allows the students to make the choice on what writing assignment they complete. All writing menus will be completed in class and graded using a standard rubric.

Spelling List will start on Thursday, September 8 and carry over into the following week. Spelling list are designed to go along with our Imagine It reading program. Spelling Test will be given on Wednesdays.
