Week 36
This week in Reading we are reading a book about the government. We will be learning about things such as the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution. We will be having our last spelling list this week, FMW#3. It will still need 20 points.
This week in Writing we are working on our Play. We are doing the Emperor's New Hair. If your student has a speaking part I want them to memorize their part by next Monday. We are still looking for props and costumes to use. If your student asks you for something to use, please if possible, let them use it. We don't want to be going out and buying lots of stuff for our play, but if we have something available to use that would be awesome! We will be performing them on Thursday May 22nd. We would love you to come and see our performance!
This week in Math we will be starting math games. We will be creating our own board/card games for math and playing them this week and next week.
This week in Social Studies we are studying for our Cumulative Review Test. The test will be taking our test next week. My class will take the test on Monday the 19th, and Miss Goldsborough's class will be on Tuesday the 20th. Also, don't forget that County Reports are due next week as well. My class is due on the 21st and Miss Goldsborough's is due on the 23rd.

This week in Reading we are going to focus on finding the main idea of passages. We are taking our SAGE reading test this week. We started today and will finish on Wednesday during reading time. Our spelling this week is FMW#2, Frequently Missed Words #2. Students still need to do their 20 points worth of homework.
This week in Writing we are starting our play! We will be practicing and then performing a play for the entire 4th grade as well as for parents. We are doing the play, The Emperor's New Hair. Some students will be memorizing lines and playing a part, others will be making our set, and others will be in charge of costumes, props, and sound effects.
This week in Math we are finishing our review. We will be going over multiplication, forms of numbers, adding in the thousands, and angles. On Friday we will be beginning our SAGE math test.
This week in Social Studies we are starting our County Reports. Students are going to do a report on a county of their choice. I will give them time this week in class to begin their research on the county. Then at home, students will make a poster displaying the information to present to the class. For my class, the County Report is due May 21st and for Miss Goldsborough's class it is due on May 22nd.
Don't forget that this Thursday, May 8th, is our field trip. Please make sure that your student comes to school prepared for the weather, with their lunch, and for lots of walking! It should be lots of fun!
