Greetings 4th grade families,
A few updates for the week ending April 18th. Monday, 4/14 we will have the Easter Egg Hunt in the morning and at 1:15 we will have a Divine Mercy Chaplet in the Gym. There will also be a prayer service on Thursday at 930. Finally, there will be no school on Friday in observance of Good Friday. Spring Vacation is next week, April 20-26.
Religion-we will be talking about the Sacrament of the Anointing of the Sick and Praying The Stations of the Cross on Fridays during Lent. We will pray The Stations on Thursday this holy week.
ELA- we are learning about pronouns in grammar,working on unit 5 in My View, Unit 14 in Vocabulary, and practicing our cursive. We are also working on our final Novel Study for Charlotte's Web.
Math- Our math fact for the week is the 2's and 3's mixed. We will also be beginning Topic 15 in Envisions which is on Lines, Rays and Angles.
Social Studies- We are learning about the Midwest Region of the United States and will soon be learning about the Southwest Region.
Science-We will be starting our Unit on Weather
A reminder, The April Book Report is a Mystery book. You should either use the Case Report paper I gave to your student or they may design their own but, it must include everything on the guidelines handed out. Try to read during vacation!!
I hope everyone has a great week!
