It's Halloween!

Aloha Fourthlandian Parents!

In social studies we did a trivia game on the North East and finished our study guides. We are starting a science unit next week!

In Reading, we continued with our short story unit and read the story Porluck and compared it to My Rotten Red Headed Older Brother. We also wrote a few CERs. We are working at improving our evidence by making it really specific.

In Writing Workshop we had a mini-lesson on “turning on the lights” by adding setting. We are working against a deadline of next week to finish our first drafts!

 In Math, we learned about elapsed time problems and variables. We are preparing for a unit test next week. Factor pairs and prime numbers continue to feel tricky. Here is a picture of our math word wall.


In other news, we finished making our Job Chart. Here is a picture. Today is Ms. Catlin’s last day. Unfortunately, she has to go back to Vermont to get rest. We are sad to see her go. If Ms. Catlin’s reading, we miss you already!

Tomorrow’s Halloween!

Your bloggers,
Samantha, Neah, Shira & guest blogger, Ben
