Remember that we have a math test on Tuesday that will cover
both Topic 3 and Topic 4.
I have posted all of the math lessons and their quizzes onto your Pearson assignment page. Please use them to help you prepare for the test.
Be responsible and study over the weekend!!
Fourth Grade will have a very special day to celebrate the culmination of our Native American Unit on Tuesday, November24th.
We will circulate through 4 Native American stations and have a class Pow-Wow to end the day.
I am asking for volunteers to come in and support our station, which is a “Rain Stick” making station. The time slots are from 10-11:30 and 11:30-12:45. I can have 2 helpers during each slot.
Please let me know if you are available and interested in participating in this fun filled day with the fourth grade.

We use technology A LOT in my classroom!! When I was a student, I wrote a paper on what the “classroom of the future” would look like. I wrote about a paperless classroom where every student had a computer at their desk.
It is so cool to have my dream realized in my very own classroom. Isn’t technology awesome!!!
Check out the pictures on the Photo Gallery page.
While celebrating Constitution Day this past September, we learned all about the preamble of the United States Constitution. The students worked in groups and illustrated what each phrase represented for them.
Enjoy the show!!
As of today, Accelerated Reader is up and running!!!!
