October 23 - October 27

Dates to Note: 

Wednesday: Unity Day-wear orange!

Thursday: Last day of the quarter. 

Thursday: Weather Test for Elsie's Class

Thursday: Plant test for Canalicho's Class. 

Friday: No School

     Believe it or not, it is the last week of the first quarter. This week's focus is to make sure work is completed and assessments are finished. 

HELP!! We are running out of individually packaged snacks for our classrooms. If you can send something in, we would greatly appreciate it!!

Reading Update

 We will be continuing our work on ReadWorks. This is a great website for practicing short passages and working on reading skills. 


Word Study Update

     Please keep working on using words in daily writing. We have noticed that even though our students are mastering their weekly tests, they are not applying these skills across the content areas. 

Writing Update


This week we will be working on identifying what a complete sentence is and what it isn't. 

Math Update

    Fourth Grade's focus is to conceptually understand multiplication and division. We know that you are tempted to show your child the algorithm for solving multiplication problems, but we are requesting that you try and refrain. We will teach them the algorithm at the end of the year after a solid understanding of multiplication and division has occurred. 

Content Update

We are continuing with our switch-a-roo!:
      Mrs. Canalichio's Class: Plant Unit
      Mrs. Elsie's Class: Weather Unit 
      Ms. Shifflett's Class: Technology Unit
