Next week Wednesday at 8:30 am we will create Ecocolumns with the other 4th grade classes. Thank you to all who've signed up to help with this fun project. Volunteers- please arrive at 8 am. We should finish before 10 am.
On Thursday the 27th we will collect all brown paper bags with funds raised for Hearts of Gold. You are welcome to send your child's money in before if you'd like.
We will take our first field trip to Michigan Heritage Park in Muskegon on October 2nd. We will take students on the school bus but would like a few parents from each class to car pool and meet us there to help chaperone. More information and a sign up will be coming soon.
Parent/teacher conferences will be held on October 18 and 23rd. You will receive information soon on how to sign up via Skyward.
This week in fourth grade:
- We observed and got to know our class pet, Pete. Things we discovered: he likes arugula, he prefers kids to adults, he doesn't move very much, and he likes the heat lamp!
- We learned how to debate our opinions of a book with a partner. We looked to find text evidence about characters in the books we're reading.
- We began multiplication using algebra. If homework is tricky use this resource: Mr. Saunders math tutorials
- We worked with a partner in science to create a Google Slideshow about animal coloring and markings. We will present these next week!
Enjoy some pictures from our visit to the library this week:
