Learning Highlights - 4B

Humanities

We have been learning about the Parts of Speech (nouns, adjectives, verbs, adverbs, and pronouns).  Today we read the book "Richard Was a Picker" to help us find some awesome examples. 
We also practiced our Parts of Speech by doing a Wacky Web Tale:

Next week, students will try to write their own Wacky Web Tale.

Math

We have been focusing on the addition strategy of Partial Sums (or Expanded Form).  In Grade 4, students should be proficient with adding 3-digit and 4-digit numbers to get sums that are in the 5-digits.  Ask your child how they would solve these addition questions using the Partial Sums/Expanded Form method:

Mild - 75 + 43

Medium - 692 + 328

Spicy - 2852 + 8118

Reminder:

- We will be doing Home Journals on Friday, if you haven't done so already, please read, and then send your child's journal back to school.
