Today's field trip to the Riversedge Nature Center was a success! Thank you to Ms. Vogl and Mr. Lozoff for joining us! The kids got to explore all kinds of landforms created by the glaciers thousands of years ago. See below for some pictures from our day.
In science this week, we will continue to finish up our glacier unit. The students will be making a glacier dictionary in class.
In math, students will learn how to do two digit by two digit multiplication. Please have them use one of the methods taught in class. The "shortcut" method is really not to be mastered until 5th grade. The final unit test for multiplication will be next Friday or the following Monday.
In writing, we began the opinion essay unit. Students are currently working on brainstorming ideas for their essays using a thesis and reasons.
In reading, we began our nonfiction unit. Right now, the kids are just getting familiar with nonfiction text structures and how to navigate a nonfiction text to learn something new. Soon they will move in to researching a type of weather event with groups using nonfiction text sets.
Just a reminder that this Wednesday is an early release day at 1:50 for the students.
