Dear Families, Some of you have asked about band for this year.  Mr. Graham has a potential candidate and needs to assess the interest from the families. If you’d like your child to participate in band, please let me know as soon as possibleJ. 

Spelling: Lesson 6 This is a review week.   Workbook and test are both due FRIDAY, October 28^th. The format for the review tests in 4^th grade is a little different.  There will be a sentence with a word spelled incorrectly and the student needs to recognize the misspelling and choose from a list of possible misspelled words.  It is the format that is used on our standardized tests in the spring so it is important to practice.  The best way to practice it to read and reread the list and notice the spellings.    

Math:  This week we are practicing multiplication and division with 5’s , and, of course,  keeping up on the 4’s, 3’s,  2’s , 1’s and 0’s!  The kids all cheered when I said that next week we will do 5”s!!!  The 0-5’s multiplication and division test will be Friday, October 28.  

Passport:  10/25

Science – We are beginning our unit on Force/Motion/Simple Machines.  Be sure to listen for assignments from the students to find certain examples of the things we are studying in the real world! This weekend they are looking for levers in your house!

Imaginary Country Maps are due Wednesday, I will send them home for homework if it doesn’t look like they will make it with class time.   Also, we are still playing the language game called: Wonderful Words in the Real World.  The student will get a skittle for every time they see or hear one of the Wonderful Words (at this time, landforms and cartographer) in the world.  So, parents, feel free to reminisce about a trip, or point out a word on the news or a TV show, or in a book, so your student can earn a skittle.  Common ones, like mountain, lake, and ocean are no longer accepted

Dear Parents, Thanks for the “loan” of your kids, they are a great group!  I enjoyed seeing many of you last night.  Thank you for your support!  Our cookie/magazine sale is going on until October 3!

Homework:

Spelling: Lesson 3 workbook and test are both due THURSDAY. I realized that with Friday folders, parents may not know the result of spelling tests for a full week, so Thursday is the new day.  The materials and list went home today.  Please help them to remember to keep a copy of the list after they have turned in the workbook. 

Math: 3x’s   This week we are practicing division by three as well as multiplying by 3.  And, of course keeping up on the 2’s and 1’s and 0’s!  The 0-3 x’s and division test will be Friday, September 30.  Their grades on the facts tests are 25% of the total math grade.  Math facts undergird all the math from here on out- all the way through high school.  They are a big push in 4^th grade. 

Passport:  The first test is Thursday the 29^th, the tests count for 25% of their S.S. grade.

Social Studies/Geography-. We have started our project called Imaginary Country.  The kids will be cartographers and make a map of an imaginary country.  The country must have some of the landforms and map features that we have been studying.  I gave them a list of requirements today.  ALSO, we are playing a language game called: Wonderful Words in the Real World.  The student will get a skittle for every time they see or hear one of the Wonderful Words (at this time, landforms and cartographer) in the world.  So, parents, feel free to reminisce about a trip, or point out a word on the news or a TV show, or a word in a book, so your student can earn a skittle.

Reading- Average 20 minutes per day.  Calendar due October. 

PE-  The PE requirement paper is due October 3.

Pleasant Valley Christian Camp-  We enjoyed our day at PVCC, thank you to all the parents that accompanied us. You all should have a thank you note from the students, it should be in your students Friday folder.   I have also attached a brochure about the camp, several of the students have asked.
