4th Grade Magnet Classroom Update
March 5-9
Vertical Book Club Groups
Students will be participating in a vertical book club this spring! They have chosen from a selection of 5 books and will be regrouped based on their book choices. Each week they will have a reading assignment, much like their homework book clubs, to complete along with a few questions to respond to which are centered around the concepts of relationships, conflict, and power. They will be given time in class to complete some of the reading but they will also have some to do at home. Book clubs will meet on Thursday afternoons for the next 6 weeks.

In math, students will begin collecting data related to a topic of their choice. This data will be used to create a commercial about their topic. In science, students will finish researching and begin creating eBooks that explain the internal and external characteristics of a specific plant and animal.
With Mrs. Hartley
In ELA, students will explore biographies of influential women in the past while practicing their close reading skills and responding to texts in review of all of the standards and strategies they’ve learned to this point.
