Extra math Bingo!
Many topics were covered this year in fourth grade math!  I am so proud of the efforts of this amazing group of students.  Their enthusiasm and hard work made every day a special math day!  This summer:  Prodigy, review of number facts and lots of looking around to see:  MATH …. It’s everywhere!!!

Language Arts

We really focused on our verb conjugations this week, as noun-verb agreement is something we continue to …struggle with.  We played a few games to help with this.

We reviewed how to form the future tense, completed a minuto loco to practice, and then used this to write about what we will do this summer.  This was completed in a “round” writing, where students share their writing, with other students adding a couple sentences.  This type of activity helps with creativity and preciseness.  Students then worked together to edit these drafts.

We began reading our last story of the year.  Please ask your child what they learned about Braille.
