In the classroom this week:

In math, we have begun learning about comparing fractions. This is a 4th-grade standard. This standard practice will continue for several weeks. I also encourage extra practice with multiplication/division fact fluency. For example, this can be done using flashcards.

In reading, we have been taking a "deep dive" into poetry, and its characteristics, and writing summaries including themes. Students are also learning about discussion norms and discussing "research text". 

I encourage you to talk with your child about all they learn from our math and reading lessons! 

Have a great week!

Snacks in the Classroom

Please ensure that everyday snacks are quick and easy for your child to handle. For example please no yogurt, pudding, uncut fruit, or messy items for daily snacks. This avoids spilling on school devices, furniture, new carpet, etc. These snacks work better in the lunchroom. Thank you for your understanding. 

Birthdays

We love to celebrate birthdays! For students who would like to celebrate birthdays in our class please bring in non-food items, for example instead of cupcakes maybe pencils. Sometimes parents put together little gift bags. These are just ideas. There is no obligation to send anything!

  Hello Lincoln Families, The 4th grade won the Penny Wars! We will celebrate with an extra recess this Thursday, May 29th in the morning. Students can bring their special "outside toy" that morning. This includes bikes, scooters, rollers blades. Great job! As we close this wonderful school year, I want to take a moment to express my deepest gratitude for your unwavering support and partnership. Your encouragement at home, your involvement in your child's learning, and your trust in our classroom have been invaluable in making this year successful and memorable.
