We welcomed in the warmer spring weather with a popsicle break outside near the pond, one of our favorite places to visit! A big thank you to Mrs. Vaiana for supplying us with this cool treat to enjoy! Image may be NSFW.

Here’s what we’ve been studying in Fourth Grade!
Math: Unit 8: Geometry – We are well on our way with Unit 8, all about geometry. The class seems to really enjoy this new way of thinking and looking at math (and especially loves measuring angles with a protractor)! Your child’s Unit 7 test arrived home this past week. The class gained a good understanding of fractions!
Reading/Writing: We have read a number of short stories and articles and are growing our ability to restate the questions being asked when writing a constructed response, along with thinking about how to incorporate evidence to support our answers.

Important Information and Reminders:
*M-STEP: Fourth graders will take the M-STEP this week, Tuesday May 4 and also Tuesday May 11. During this time, please encourage your child to eat a healthy breakfast and keep a routine bedtime. Just a reminder, please refrain from scheduling any appointments during these testing dates. Thank you.
*Early Release Day: We will dismiss at 12:15pm on Friday, May 21.
*Book & Reading Log: Please remind your child to return their book & reading log EACH day to school. They will have an opportunity to read during their Individualized Reading Time. I like to periodically touch base to listen to the children read and see if they have selected a “good fit” book.
*Homework: Reading: Read a minimum of 30 minutes every night. Remember to log the time and pages on your reading log and return it to school each day. Math: 2 pages, twice a week.
I wish you a wonderful start to the month of May!
