Try to work out this Open Response math problem with your child tonight. We will be doing this in class tomorrow. We are working on fractions this week as well as our open response strategies. Have your child bring their work to school if you complete it. I look forward to seeing them!

Spelling

Dear Families,
In order to better prepare for the writing portion of the Benchmark test we are going to work on the most frequently misspelled words for 4th graders for the next two week. One way you can practice these words with your child or have them practice individually is to use the link provided below to go  to the website Spelling City. There is a list of 30 words. Next week there will be another list of 30 words. Students will not be taking a traditional spelling test over these words. I just want them to practice using them and spelling them for homework for the next two weeks. Thank you for all your support and help!
