SPELLING HOMEWORK
This week's spelling words will focus on plural words. On Monday I will give the students a pretest to determine their spelling list (approaching, on level, or beyond).

I'm proud that most students are returning their spelling homework menu each week. Four activities need to be completed by Friday! Thank You!
FOURTH GRADE RESOURCES
I created this LiveBinder this summer for my new fourth grade scholars! This binder is full of helpful websites and tools to assist your child. It's similar to a virtual live bookmarking website. I update the binder often! Enjoy!
