What We Are Learning

Reading:

  • In February we will focus on the genre historical fiction.
    We will continue looking at the author’s perspective and
    work on inferencing. We will review run on sentences and
    work on other grammar skills.

Math:

  • 4th grade will be diving into the world of fractions! We will
    be learning how to identify, model, add and subtract,
    simplify , and find equivalent fractions. We will also be
    reviewing our 2 X 2 digit multiplication and long division
    strategies.

Science:

  • We are learning about how earth has changed over time. We
    will first determine how fossils are made. We will do this by
    making observations and inferring what our observations
    mean.
