We continually review addition and subtraction facts and will now be focusing on multiplication, even as we move through the other chapters and cover other new content.
Science
- New unit on natural resources
Social Studies
- introducing new "take to your seat" geography centers
- wrap up on history of MLK Day
*We also enjoy a variety of science and social studies topics during the week with our subscription to Scholastic Newspaper and our iPad app "Brain Pop".
Cursive
- upper case T and U
*Notes of Interest
We are enjoying our pen pal writing with a fourth grade class in Jupiter, Florida. We are hoping to be able to do "face time" with our pals on the iPads in the future.
The class is now able to access more educational items via iPads on our science website from Discovery Education with some recent tech updates.
I still have not been given a date for sending home report cards, but it should be soon!
New college teachers will be starting this week.
Stay warm!
