Reading Really Makes the Difference!
What's going on in 4th grade this week
Social scientists are looking at comparing and contrasting the climates and economies of the 13 colonies. Next week we will begin looking at life in colonial times!
Readers are reading a wide variety of texts which include news articles informing us of current issues, a realistic novel "War with Grandpa", and reading non fiction historical texts. This is all in addition to reading self selected books of choice.
Writers are working on completing a persuasive essay on a topic of their choice. We have spent time looking at a variety of opinion writings and have learned that it is very important to have reasons and evidence to support our opinions.
