Newsletter - September 30th - October 4th

Math: Students will work on Lessons 21-25 this week.  

Reading: Our main story this week is The Raft.  Students will be working on identifying characters, events, and character's reactions to those events along with working on Inferences.

Book Report:  Mystery
Due: Thursday, October 17th
When reading their book, students should take notes on these items: main character, setting, conflict, supporting characters, rising action, connections, climax and resolution, and finally their personal review.  To find the notes page click here: Notes for Mystery Story
The back side of the Notes page is due by October 4th.
First typed review due October 11th.
Final copy due October 17th.
The final report will be typed in their Google Drive using a document I have created and shared with them. 

Art: Please view your child's Animation project with them.  They are looking great!  If their project is not linked to the blog, look for it soon, they will be finishing them this week.

Chapel Buddies: This week the 4th graders helped the Kindergartners to make an apple booklet.  The book works on studying the words: in, above, through, between, outside, and inside. 

Library Days: Each Tuesday the 4th graders are able to select two reading books of their choice.  Please note that books need to be turned in by 8:20 a.m. Tuesday morning.

CCLS partners with five Lutheran Churches in the area.
I hope you can attend one of these churches or a different church of your choice.
