This week in fourth grade:

  • We voted on Election Day for the Movie Night selection. Aladdin won!
  • We learned more strategies for division. Please check in with your student on homework. This is a challenging topic and is not coming easily for everyone. A few moments per evening could make a huge difference in your child's confidence!
  • We continued to research and gather information on natural disasters with our research teams. We will present our findings to the class at the conclusion of this unit.
  • We did a cool inquiry lesson on chemical weathering in science.
