Highlights

Whew! The weeks have just been flying by! The class has been busy preparing for ISATs and studying for Math and Science tests. Luckily we have all made it through in one piece!

We also celebrated Valentine’s Day last week which we had lots of fun doing thanks to our wonderful moms who helped out. We couldn’t have done it without you! Not only did we celebrate Valentine’s Day, but we also had a baby shower for Mrs. Watson and baby Drew, complete with decorations. Thank you to everyone who contributed, Mrs. Watson really loved the gifts and the party.

            The class will be continuing our ISAT practice in Math, Reading, and Science.

Our reading story this week is “A Peddler’s Dream” by: Janice Shefelman.  Our skill this week is plot.  In English, we will review adverbs and begin work on pronouns.

            Its Science Fair Time!!!

            This year is going to be our first year to have the 4^th grade conduct their own Science Fair Projects, with the help of parents, to be presented at our Math and Science Night. This week the entire 4^th grade will be getting information on this project to bring home, as well as picking their Science Fair projects they would like to conduct. I will be sending home more information throughout the week as well.
