March!

We are now studying decimals!  Fourth graders need to know how to turn fractions into decimals, to show decimals on a number line, and how to write decimals in expanded form.
In social studies, we have moved on to the Southeast Region.  We are enjoying some New Orleans jazz music while we work on our Foldables.
Next in science, we will learn about changes in matter.   What are the differences in physical changes and chemical changes?
In religion, one of the things we are doing to prepare for Easter is filling a jar with blue marbles each time we notice a classmate doing something thoughtful and merciful.  We are also studying the fourth commandment.
Please remember to send in food for the canned food drive!
In reading, we just finished reading groups.   Students presented amazing choice projects, showcasing the many talents and learning styles in our classroom.

Finally, in writing, we are writing short "slice of life" stories each day as we participate in a writing contest!  Please follow our blog here!
