    Language Arts
    We will begin reading a variety of
    Greek myths in story and play formats. As
    we compare characters (and their traits),
    we will look deeper into themes and morals
    of these stories. Next week, the children
    will choose from stories in class (or find
    their own Greek myth) and complete a small
    project before retelling the story to the
    class and to younger students. Please be
    patient as this project progresses as we
    determine due dates along the way! We will
    also begin synthesizing information from
    text to reach a deeper understanding of
    what we are reading.

    Writing

    Our informative writing this week
    focuses on main ideas.

    Math
    The children will complete the Unit 6
    and the Everyday Math Mid-Year
    assessments before moving on to Unit 7
    and fractions!
    EVERYDAY MATH FAMILY LETTERS
    can be found on-line this year! As in past years,
    they contain unit vocabulary, activities, and
    selected homework answers. You can find these
    newsletters at:
    hLLp://everydaymaLh.uchlcago.edu/parenLs/4Lh-
    grade/famlly-leLLers/ If you cannot access them,
    please let me know.

    Social Studies
    We will map the South Region and
    begin looking at its physical features and
    natural resources.

    Science - from the desk of Mrs. Liporto
    At the beginning of the week we will
    be going over the information for our
    annual fourth grade Invention Convention!
    I will discuss this with the students in
    class on Tuesday and the packets will come
    home with them on that day. Please take a
    few minutes to go over this information
    with your fourth grade and then sign the
    top page of the packet. I am hoping to
    have all sign-off pages returned no later
    than Friday this week. I appreciate your
    support!
    Also this week in science we will begin to
    get into our invention unit. This will be a
    chance for students to put on their
    creative hats and put to use some of the
    information they have learned about simple
    machines. Well begin by looking at some
    common objects and coming up with new
    and unusual uses for them. Later in the
    week will start inventing! Our first project
    will be a Thingamajig, where students have
    to use various materials to invent
    something new.


    Class Tidbits!

    Happy Birthday
