As some of you may have concluded, there is a change coming in the way of spelling lists and tests for your fourth grader. This change will be fully implemented and well explained after the break. Until then, the students will continue in their study of Greek and Latin roots. Some students are still catching up on the root cosm. From there, they will move on to study the root: cracy. There will be an open note quiz given this week on all roots studied thus far.

Wowzers!!
Wow!! What an amazingly busy week we have had thus far. Some things have been out of my control, which has resulted in the students' reading logs not being sent home for this week. I am planning to send this home tomorrow (Wednesday) afternoon. The reading log has been updated to include some questions that must be answered using expository text. Thus, students will continue their reading of expository text at home. It is not required that they read expository text every day, but 3 of the 5 days will be expected. Also, the students will have until next Wednesday, December 17 to complete and turn in their reading log.
We have a fun Holiday party planned for Friday, December 19. Please see the note that will be coming home on Wednesday for the items needed to help our party be a success. If you have questions about this please contact me. This is such a busy time of year, your positive thoughts for our successful days are MUCH appreciated.
