Update 1/24/2017

Parents,e

The students have a few problems to complete on multi-step measurement word problems. Some students have one problem to do while others have two or three to complete. They should read the problem, draw it out using bar models, and then solve the problem making sure they convert units, if needed. For example, if they had over 60 minutes, they should convert that to hours.

This week we are reading a nonfiction story about the pink dolphin from the Amazon. They will practice compare and contrast along with citing text based evidence from the passage. The students are still working on their fictional narrative.

In math, tomorrow we will do more multi-step measurement word problems, review on Thursday, and test this Friday.

In social studies we are working on historical events for all the regions of the United States.

Reminders on the following that went home with your child today:

- Our fourth graders will be participating in the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) on Feb. 7th, 2017.

- Field trip form to the Onslow County Museum on Feb. 14, 2017.

- Classroom group pictures to be taken this Thursday. (Students must wear their school uniform.)
