Our learning this week...

We have been reviewing place value and expanding our knowledge of how to write numbers. Below are our current 4th grade expectations for writing numbers.





We have been reading and discussing texts together. This week we read "The Princess and the Pizza". While reading, we shared our predictions, learned new vocabulary words, reminded each other about the features of a story, and talked about how we knew this text was a fairy tale. We also focused on providing text evidence when giving an answer. Ask your child to tell you a little about the fairy tale.


Homework!

As a class, we discussed how to efficiently solve the homework from Tuesday night. As you can see, it is all about knowing the vocabulary, recognizing the pattern, and knowing place value. Thank you for sitting down with your child and going over the nightly homework each evening!

Here's what we've been up to...
