We started the week with a program on waves led by Josh from the Museum of Science in Boston. Thanks to the PCC for providing this wonderful enrichment program. It was a great way to kick off our physical science unit. Also, one of our classmates brought in a skin from his Bearded Lizard to show us an animal adaptation! Very cool!

We have started our study of the West region and are working in groups to create slideshows about the geography, climate, natural resources, important people and places of the West AND about the Tlingit. More research next week!
Geometry is the focus of math for the next few weeks. Everyone is doing a great job with this vocabulary rich unit. MCAS is during the first full week of May (next week) and we will be ready. Ask your child about writing constructed responses in math with Mrs. Murray.
We are 2/3s of the way through The One and Only Ivan and should finish soon. Everyone is LOVING this story. Ask your child to tell you about the story. The Rock Poetry project was handed out today, ask your child to tell you all about it!
Next week will be an exciting week as Ms. Liz, our Poet In Residence, will be working with all the fourth grade classes. Be on the look out for some pictures AND some great poetry written by students.
Have a great weekend!
Mrs. Williams
