A Big Bite

It was a great week in room 23.  Will's mom, Mrs.  Henrichon, came to JFK to talk about the animals of the northeast.  She works for the Mass Audubon Society and was able to tell us so much!  We were able to feel pelts of different animals and look at some skeletons.  It was really awesome. :) We took a test in math on measurement and will be starting graphing next week.  Mythology and MCAS prep are our themes in reader's workshop.  Everyone is very excited to learn about Greek mythology.  We wrote one final narrative in writer's workshop in preparation for the Long Composition on Tuesday.  We are ready!  In science we learned about clouds and in social studies we started learning about the southeast region.  One of the highlights of our week was Pi Day (see below).  We can't believe how quickly 4th grade is passing, time is flying in room 23!
