We have been very busy in the fourth grade classroom! In religion, we've been studying the Beatitudes. We have read stories, watched a video, created posters, and have had class discussions on what the Beatitudes mean in our lives. This week, we will be finishing up Unit 1 in math. Unit 1 focused on reviewing adding and subtracting large numbers. We will have a Unit 1 test on Friday. In science, we have been working with the Land and Water Einstein Kit. The students love it! Each group has their own stream table they’ve been working on. As a class, we’ve been working on not talking so much and focusing more in class. In the front of the room, we have magnetic letters spelling “NOISE”. Each time the class is talking when they’re not supposed to be, they get a letter taken away. This has helped make them aware of when is an appropriate and not appropriate time to be talking with friends. We will continue to work on this skill going into October. |
