Thank you for all the food donations to support our current outreach project! The collection lasts until Tuesday and I am super proud of how many items the girls have already brought in. Here is a flashback photo to when I was crowned Turkey Queen at another school many years ago! Please ask your daughter to explain! 😂
Math: We are continuing in unit 3 and spent some this week learning the difference between prime and composite numbers. The math vocabulary in 4th grade is challenging and we are working hard to learn the meanings of all of these terms. The girls also learned how to make a bar graph on Google Sheets and used their Halloween candy count as their data. Here are their graphs!
Social Studies: We started our unit on westward expansion. We are discussing what life was life
during this time. We have had some great
conversations about why people left their homes to head out west and
what was their motivation. Specifically, we discussed the Lewis and Clark expedition and read and analyzed some of their journal entries from that time.
Reading: To accompany our westward expansion unit, we are reading a novel in our reading time called Ranger in Time, Rescue on the Oregon Trail.
Writing: The girls completed a really fun writing lab about eyebombing. Check out what this means by viewing their creative, perspective writing.
