Wow! Time is flying by! I can't believe we are already into our second 9 weeks of school! We are making a few changes in our 4th grade classes and are starting to incorporate more grammar and writing into our science class time. With this change, students will now have spelling during their time spent in my classroom. This includes students in my homeroom, Mrs. Henson's homeroom, and Mr. Smith's Homeroom. Our Common Core/Homeroom time will be used to review and expand on Math and Reading skills. We will continue to do Automaticity during this time starting back next week!
Important Info:
-We will have a SCIENCE quiz on Friday 10/31/14 over the life cycle of a plant and photosynthesis.
-No School Monday 11/3/14 or Tuesday 11/4/14!
-Quiz over editing marks and parts of a letter when we return on 11/5/14. This will be during Science class.
If you have any questions, please let me know! I hope everyone has a great week!

Lung Model Bonus Points
Students can earn 5 points on their lowest quiz grade if they bring in a homemade lung model on 10/9/14! Here are two examples of lung models that we viewed in class today and another that I have added that they can use to help.

Science:
- In science this week we are covering body systems. Last week we learned about adaptations and created some of our own organisms with adaptations that helped them survive in their environment. On Friday (10/10/14), we will have a quiz over adaptations and life cycles!
Homeroom/Common Core:
-In common core time this week we are learning how to write a paragraph. We are also reviewing some of the things we have covered over the past several weeks. Our spelling words for this week are all about prefixes, they are listed on spelling city http://www.spellingcity.com/morgantaylor1/. We will have a spelling and automaticity test on Friday!
Keep Calm... Next Week is FALL BREAK!!!! :)
I hope everyone has a great week! Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns!!
