There has been a lot going on in 4th grade lately!  Besides MAP Testing and the Book Fair, the 4th graders have kept busy with planning and writing a story in Language Arts, learning about fractions in Math.  We finished up Unit 7 on Friday and will review for the test on Tuesday, Wednesday we will take the test.  In Science they finished up 'Rocks and Minerals" and are now reading their biographies and taking notes on the person from their state in Social Studies.  We are ready to start a new theme in Reading entitled, "Problem Solvers," and the first story is "My Name is Maria Isabel."  Skills we will be working on are: predicting outcomes, words with the suffix -ible, base words and inflected forms for nouns, adjectives, and verbs, and the irregular verb -be.  We will also have spelling again this week.

Thanks to all the parents who joined us for Parent-Teacher Conferences!  It is always enjoyable to talk with you about your children.  We look forward to meeting with the rest of you this week.
