4th Grade Mar 4-8th


In math we are starting our measurement unit. We will be learning about the different ways to measure using the Customary and Metric systems. We are also still reviewing fractions. We had pretty low scores on our test last week. I’ve noticed that students are having trouble finding equivalent fractions with common denominators and having trouble simplifying their answers. We will be reviewing this in class. In writing we are starting our Biography Unit. Students will write a short biography of one of their classmates this week. On Thursday, students will receive a list of questions to take home. Right now, they are deciding whom they are going to write a biography on. It needs to be a relative that they can talk to. The relative MUST be older than them. When they get their list of questions, they need to talk to the relative and either write down the answers to the questions themselves, or have their relative write the answers to the questions. These question sheets are due on Tuesday March 12th so we can start writing our paper then.
