Hello Parents,<\/p>\n
Welcome back to a new week. I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving and spent time relaxing and enjoying family and friends. I am very thankful for the support you all give your children and myself as we are a team! We are all working hard to give the best to our children so thank you for that:)<\/p>\n
This week:<\/p>\n
Math:
\nWe will practice fluency with our facts at home for homework by practicing multiplication and division while learning new concepts such as factors, multiples, prime numbers, composite numbers, and reading\/solving story problems. The internet is a great source to parents for refreshing math concepts as I understand much has changed since we learned math. <\/p>\n
Reading and writing:
\nWe will finish our compare\/contrast writing and begin to study drama. We will study characters, elements of drama, word choice, vocabulary, and practice using what we know to infer character traits\/motivations, etc. We will then begin to write our own drama. <\/p>\n
Spelling this week: conductor, harbor, cheddar, odor, avatar, elevator, collar, grammar, guitar, tartar, hardness, factor, product, production.
\nPlease practice spelling on your own. I can tell when students don’t practice. It’s worth the time as the grades reflect the effort put in:)<\/p>\n
Science: We are beginning our unit on matter:)<\/p>\n
Coming up:
\n4th Grade Popcorn Sale: Friday, December 16th. Please refer to the previous note sent on the dojo. We are need of many items that day. One of our homeroom parents will be calling for donations:) Thank you!<\/p>\n
Have a great week! <\/p>\n
Sincerely,
\nGina Parana<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
