Just a little bit about what is going on in class: Reading-Our read aloud is Tuck Everlasting by Natalie Babbitt. Ask your 4th grader if he/she would drink from the spring and explain to you why or why not! We have been learning through Weekly 4 all year and we are adding CAFE to our reading time this week. We are continuing to use our Story Works to learn and practice our reading skills. Click here to learn more about either of these learning times in our class.  Writing-We are working on our Arbor Day essays, the kids should be finished with their rough drafts and ready to publish tomorrow. Feel free to look them over and give your advice, we are entering our essays into a contest. Rules for the contest are on Google Classroom.  Math-We are still learning about fractions. Help me out by reiterating to the kids to find the unit fraction first. For example, if they are trying to find 4/6 of a whole or a set, find 1/6 first. I'll email an optional study guide for our quiz.  Content-We have learned about the regions of Alabama and will have a quiz on them on Thursday! Spelling counts. Next we will be exploring the major waterways in our state. We will also be learning about animals and focusing on animals in our state.

As always, thanks for your support. We have a great class! ;)
