Fabulous Fourth Grade
Week of October 7th
Highlights from the Week
Last week was a fun week full of decimals and a Blue Bell field trip. The field trip was awesome besides that we got rained on when it was time to go. It just made it more of an adventure. The first six weeks ended on Friday so be waiting for Report Cards.
Math
We are learning more and more about decimals. This week we are practicing adding and subtracting. To help your student practice their skills ask them to add up the cost of dinner when you go out or the cost of groceries when cutting coupons.
Science
We are returning to science this week, which we are all excited about. This week we are talking about volume and buoyancy. Science Fair projects were approved, so start asking your child about their hypothesis.
Homework
This weeks homework is similar to last weeks. The bumper stickers about decimals turned out awesome and are on display in the hall. It is due on Friday, so help your child manage their time wisely around sports, tutoring, etc.
Reminders
- Pizza Ranch Field Trip is on Wednesday! Don't forget to pack your student lunch and water.
- Information about Pumpkin Math is coming home, so be on the look-out.
- Start the first step of the Science Experiment (ideas and resources are on my website)
