Hello fabulous fourth grade families,

This week we will be taking the TerraNova Exams. Please ensure your child comes to school each day having eaten a good breakfast. Students should also make sure they have at least 2 #2 pencils, a water bottle, and a book to read. We will be taking the TerraNova tests on Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday morning. On Wednesday we will also celebrate Valentine’s Day. If you would like a class list to help fill out valentines please let me know. As a friendly reminder there will be no school the week of February 19th in observation of Presidents week. School will resume on Monday February 26th.

Below you will find what we will be doing for each subject this week:

ELA: This week in ELA we will continue to read our class read-aloud, I Survived the California Wildfires. We will also be finishing our opinion writing. In grammar we will continue our study of verbs.
