Hello fabulous fourth grade families,
Below you will find what we will be doing for each subject this week:
ELA: This week in ELA we return to the Wonders curriculum. We will be working on answering the question, What ways can science be helpful or harmful? We will be reading All About Organic, A New Kind of Corn, and The Pick of the Patch. We will be focusing on the skill of purpose, and using elements of nonfiction to help us understand the text. We will be starting our next 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.
Math: This week in math we will finish Module 12, relating fractions to decimals. There will be a quiz on Friday 2-9. There will be no module 12 test. As always it is important to continue to review fact fluency at home to reinforce the skills taught in school. As always helpful videos and resources can be found on Google Classroom.
Religion: In Religion we will continue learning stories of the Old Testament.
Social Studies: This week in S.S. we will read the story George vs. George, taking a look at the similarities between George Washington and King George. We will also complete lesson 3, Winning the War. We will be learning about how the Revolutionary War ended.
Science: In science we will continue our second unit of study, Waves of Sound. We will be focusing on the question: why are some sounds high and some sounds low?
Blessings,
Ms. Stainkamp
