It has been another awesome week in 4th grade! We continue to make progress in math on fractions and the students are working hard. We are almost done with Mighty Jack, by Ben Hatke. We are using the strategies from the Into Reading program when we read novels together to synthesize our learning. In writer’s workshop the students are working on paragraphs about how they got their name and will be creating a slideshow to showcase their work. We continue to learn about animal adaptations in science and we built terrariums on Thursday. We are looking forward to observing the terrariums grow and flourish throughout the school year.
On Wednesday, Peter and Andrew, former FPS students and JFK resident engineers came to speak with 4th graders about the engineering process. We appreciate Peter and Andrew for volunteering their time to help us learn about engineering and for their guidance as the students designed their “puff mobile.” Ask your student all about it!
