Math Multiplication Packets: I was a little disappointed in the student work over the weekend when I went to grade the Mon-Thurs. packet.  Multiplication Facts were to be memorized in 3rd grade. We have a LOT of content to cover in 4th grade and cannot devote weeks of class time to re-memorize the facts. PLEASE help your child on his/her facts.  This week I will be trying something different. Hopefully it is easier to check your child's work this way.

Math: Today we worked on reading and making line graphs.  The kids did a good job on answering some tough questions!
HW: pg. 76 in workbook, stapled page of multiplication in planner. Please sign the mult. page after you review the answers

Reading: Today we started reviewing author's purpose.  Students read a story and we used clues from the folktale to help us find the purpose.  Next, we made our own Author's Pie. Lastly, students received their vocab words for the week. We will begin having weekly tests over the words on Thursdays.
HW: Finish Author's Pie by writing a short 2-3 sentence story about each label (entertain, inform, persuade).  Some students need to finish their definitions of vocab words as well.
Vocab Words:
interfere, guardian, agile, tottered, awkward, proclaimed

Science:
*The test has been moved to Wednesday!*
Today we reviewed for the test by going over sample/similar questions.  Students also worked in their groups to finish their articles on erosion and weathering.
No HW

Writing: Students took a Reading Assessment we didn't get to on Friday.

TOMORROW's FYI and HW:
