Newsletter September 8-11 and Pictures

Recycling Fun!
Here are a few snapshots of the 4th graders recycling for the school this week.






Math: In Math this week the students will have their first math test on Wednesday or Thursday depending on how long the review will take to complete.   I do not want to rush the first test so I will make sure there is plenty of review/question time before the test.

Here is a link to our text book online.

Reading: Students are working on selecting the Main Idea and Details from a story.  This week we will be reading A Walk in the Desert

Art: Students will learn about How Failure Leads to Success.  We watched a short clip about how Michael Jordan failed plenty of times but in the end those attempts led him to succeed in the game of basketball.  
Each student is reflecting on a topic in their life on how they have tried to complete something but have failed only later with hard work found out they could succeed.  They will be creating a digital flip book in art to show their story.  Students should have their artwork completed so they can be working on the film portion of the digital flipbook.

Here are some pictures of the class diligently working during art class.





Library Days: Thursdays are our library day please help remind your student to bring back all library books on Thursdays.

Scholastic Book Club:  You may place book orders online through Scholastic Book Club through Friday, September 25th.  Check out the catalog online.  Please use our parent code to log in and order your books.  There is also a scholastic link to the Book Club page on the right side of this blog.  Happy Reading!
