CLASSROOM NOTES & REMINDERS

Thanks for sending in the many different baking goodies for the 4^th grade Winter Sports fundraiser! Please check out our blog to pictures of our basket.

Math –Our work on numbers up to 10,00 will continue this week. Our focus has been on place value, understanding what each number represents. We created a 10,000 chart for the classroom and have been playing games focusing on place value. We will be moving on to subtraction with large numbers latter in the week. You’ll notice that the homework in focuses on addition with large numbers, but please remember to continue practicing multiplication combinations (facts) with your child. Remember, to ask HW questions on the blog!

Word Study- We will begin a new unit this week. Our focus will be open syllables and long vowels.  A long vowel sound refers to the sound a vowel makes when it says it’s name (the exception is y which can say /e/ and /i/). An open syllable has one vowel, the vowel is open at the end and the sound is long. For example, solo, tiny, baby.

We have 2,000 new classmates! The red wigglers have arrived and made their home in 4^th grade. We learned a lot from Denise Lindgren from Worms In School. Ask your child about our newest friends!
