Our field trip is coming up this week on Thursday, September 22nd! Please remember to have your child here at school at 7:50 am with a lunch! Dress accordingly for the weather that day, because we will have activities outside. If you are coming with us on the trip don't forget your driver's license so you can go on the tour with us through Gavins Point Dam.
We are diving into multiplication in math and it is very helpful if you help your child learn their multiplication facts. During math I introduced them to Multiplication.com. It is a fun site where you can practice your facts in a lot of different ways. Spending a few minutes on facts just a couple nights a week can make a big difference for your child!
Thank you for everyone who took time out of their evenings to come to curriculum night this past week. It was a great time touch base with everyone and give you time to ask questions.
Just a friendly reminder that memory starts this upcoming week!

We took our first spelling test of the year, and so far they seem to be going well! Please remember to practice your child's words throughout the week. You will find their lists taped in their planners.
Our first novel that we are reading together as a class is Because of Winn Dixie. We are learning lots of new vocabulary words!
In math we have been focusing on adding and subtracting multi digit numbers. Learning our basic facts can play a huge role in math, so here are a couple of fun adding and subtracting games your child or even you can play at home! Minus Mission Space Shuttle Launch Math Facts Practice
Curriculum nights will be on Monday and Tuesday of this coming week. Mrs. Noble will not be at the Monday night session, so if you would like to see both teachers please come on Tuesday night. One of our topics that we need to discuss with you is how we are going to do Memory this year. This is also a great time for you to ask any questions that you may have about 4th grade.
The pancake brunch and open house is this Sunday. Come eat delicious food, and walk upstairs to see some of our projects we have been working on.
Our field trip to Yankton is on Thursday, September 22nd. Please let us know if you would like to help chaperone.

What an exciting first FULL week of school we had. It is nice to get into the routine of things. Students had fun starting individual lessons this week, and playing nine square at recess!
Please look for a purple piece of paper that talks about our upcoming field trip to Yankton, SD. If you have any questions about this trip or would like to come along, please let us know. It will be here before we know it. The 4th graders are already excited, except for the part when we said no electronics for the drive...
We don't have our iPads yet, which makes it hard to do research. In Science we are learning how animals use their senses help them survive. They are supposed to choose an animal and write down how their senses help them survive. Your child should have brought home an example, so you can better understand how to help them with their research.
Our first math test was today on place value, rounding, and comparing numbers! Everyone did a great job on showing what they have learned so far! We will be starting adding and subtracting multi digit numbers when we come back from Labor Day weekend.
Here is the information on the purple piece of paper, just in case you don't see it in your child's folder!:)
