Happy Monday,
-Math: I am super impressed with how well the kids are getting fractions. A little bit of last week and this week we started learning how to multiply fractions by a whole number (4.NF.4. The students are learning three ways to solve this problem: drawing visuals, number lines, and the standard algorithm. We will have a test on Wednesday for this concept. Then on Thursday they will lean how to express a fraction with a denominator of 10 as an equivalent fraction with a denominator of 100 (4.NF.5).

-Reading:
This week for reading we are doing a review. The students have chosen a book on an event in history. They will be creating a comic strip book focusing on summarizing, paraphrase, and quoting from the text. This will be a fun activity to do before spring break, but still focuses on writing and comprehension.
-Language:
The spelling words are a review from prior weeks. Please have your child study the words since the last two spelling test have been challenging
-Science:
We are continuing to work on L to J. This is a great review for the students before the state test. After spring break we will take a break from it and dive into electricity and magnetism.
