We are now in the 4th quarter of school. WOW. We are preparing for the achievement tests which will be given on April 30, May 2, and May 5. (Make up tests will be given May6-9.) The students will take reading, math, and writing tests.
We are currently completing chapter 7 in math. The test is THURS. Please continue to review basic multiplication and division facts. Our next several math chapters are based on these basic concepts. In reading - we are focusing on reading comprehension strategies, making inferences, and drawing conclusions. We are also working on reading test taking strategies. In language arts, we are studying pronouns: subject, object, possessive, and homophones (there, their, they're, etc.) Our current and subsequent spelling/vocabulary lessons will be words from our social studies lessons. In social studies, we are learning about the economic growth in Ohio from the 1830's through the Civil War. We are also learning about the four factors of production: capital, labor, entrepreneurship, and land. These lessons will help to prepare us for our GREAT BIG 4th GRADE BUSINESS ADVENTURE. (We'll start that project April 1.)
CAMP WILLSON!!!! PLEASE RETURN THE PERMISSION SLIPS AND MONEY AS SOON AS POSSIBLE!!!
