Hello Fabulous Fourth Grade Families, 

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

We will be working on the skills of plot and summary. In grammar we will start learning about adjectives, adverbs, and prepositions. In writing we will continue our unit on narrative stories. We will also continue our Flat Stanley Narrative Writing. Please see the directions sent home last week, or google classroom for additional information.

Math: This week in math we complete module 19, Customary Unit Conversions. This is a short module.  There will be a quiz on Thursday 5-8 and a test on 5-9. Students do not need to memorize the unit conversions, and will be provided them on both the quiz and 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: This week we will be learning about the miracles of Jesus. We will be completing a Miracles of Jesus Triorama, which will be counted as a test grade, and will be due on 5-16.    

Social Studies: We will begin Ch. 6, Social Change and the Civil War. Our Civil War choice board project will be due on 5-9. 

Science: This week we will continue the unit of science, Electricity, Light, & Heat. We will be focusing on the question, Can you build a chain reaction machine? Students will be working in groups to build their own chain reaction machines. 

Blessings, 

Ms. Stainkamp
