Vocabulary (www.sadlierconnect.com)

This site is set up to help students learn and practice using the district’s fourth grade vocabulary words. The vocabulary pages from their orange book are online. They also have interactive games, such as hangman and memory, that will help solidify their     acquisition of the vocabulary words for each unit in a fun way. This site will never be used for homework. It is entirely for your use as an additional support option.

Google Classroom (accessed through www.smithtown.k12.ny.us/)

This site is set up as different “classrooms” for each subject area. Within each  classroom students will see announcements and assignments. This is an wonderful place where we will work on projects both at school and at home. All work is saved  automatically for your child to work on from any computer. This will sometimes be used for specific homework assignments. For example, their monthly Reading           Response letter will be submitted on here.
