Class Stuff

Our class earned the upper-grade pizza party from the PTA sponsored "No T.V. Week" challenge. I am so proud of the fun things that members of our class did besides watching T.V.
Social Studies - We have started talking about Archaeology. See our blog.
Science - Our weather unit is in full swing. We have talked about all the different tools that meteorologists (weather scientists) use and also talk about some properties of air.
Math - We have learned about factors and multiples. We have been exploring perimeter and area.
Language Arts - We have started our guided reading groups up again. We are reading some of my favorite fantasy books. We are exploring how Reading is Thinking!
40 Book Challenge - You should have read about 10 books so far to be on track for our challenge. If you don't have that many then pump it up.

Books we have read as a class that will count are: Fourth Grade Rats (RF), first Guided Reading Book (RF), and Come Back Salmon (I).
