Spring is in the Air
4th Grade
Personal Narrative and Expository Experts!
We are writing 6 compositions in the next 6 weeks. The students are writing from their hearts for Personal Narratives (your story) and they are experts on the Expository Compositions (inform/explain). They are excited to share their writing during our celebration times!
Homeroom Pen Pals in South Korea
My homeroom has the opportunity to make friends across the world! We have started writing friends in South Korea. The students are learning English in 3-5th grade classes in Seoul.
Weather
We are learning about the weather, forecasting and patterns of change in Science. We look forward to having KAGS Chief Meteorologist Jared Plushnick present to 4th grade on February 27th!
Water Cycle
We will explore the water cycle. The picture above is the actual shape of a water droplet.
The STAAR Writing Assessment
The STAAR Writing Assessment is April 1 and 2. The two days will have Revise and Edit questions, much like the homework and bi-weekly in class tests. The students will also write one Personal Narrative (your story) and one Expository (inform) on the 2 days. We will continue to prepare for the assessment. Please look in the Monday folders for additional information and strategies to help at home.
