From AshleyM and Sarah

Partial Sums and the correcet way. We did the balance experiment and Sid got First place and Sarah got second.We did the Whipping Boy Quiz .We got a Bio book at the Library.

Updates from room 19!

We’re working on adding and subtracting multidigit numbers. The partial sums method was reviewed today and is on the back side of their homework. I told them they can use the regular carrying method if they’re more comfortable with that even though it says to use partial sums. They can choose the method as long as they are getting the correct answer. We’ll be finishing up this chapter next week and then moving on to multiplication. Please continue to practice multiplication facts with your child every week. Check their binders for their latest test.




We have our chapter 2 Social Studies test on Friday. The kiddos are bringing their books home to review and study. This chapter covered AZ’s regions, plants, animals, and the importance of water. We’ll move on with the Ancient Indians of Arizona next as well as Archaeology.



We finished The Whipping Boy yesterday and the kiddos LOVED it! It was a great first literature study. They’ll finish up the vocab, character analysis, and test this week. To go hand in hand with the book our language unit has focused on figurative language. We’ve also been working on Conventions and the 4 types of sentences. Next week we’ll write our first persuasive essay.



Our first book report criteria will come home on Monday. It will be a Biography book report on the person of their choice. We’ll check out books on Friday but if they want to get a book from the public library on a different person that is fine too. They’ll present these reports the first week of October so this will give them at least 3 weeks to read the book, write the report, and prepare for the presentation.



The Scientific Method is alive in room 19! We’ve been conducting different experiments to get familiar with the steps. The experiments will become a little messy (exciting!) starting next week. We’ll move from the method to influential scientists.



Thank you to everyone who has donated items off of our wish list and or donating tax credit! The thank you cards are coming home tomorrow and they’re super cute. If you or someone you know gives tax credit, please have it come through the classroom first so the kiddos can send them a thank you. If it goes to the office first I have no way of knowing who to send one to. If you need any more forms let me know!



The volunteer calendar is updated through October. When you’re here I have November and December ready for you to fill in with your wanted dates or I can plug you in again. If you want to pick up any extra shifts or be added just go to the volunteer link and check for any openings. Thank you so much for coming in to help!

Mark your calendars for October 4. This will be the 4th grade program of Cruisin’ Arizona. Showtime is usually around 6:30. I’ll send home more info as it gets closer.
