ELA
Reading:

format stays the same for our lessons but we’ll be using magazines and a
chapter book titled Phineas L. MacGuire…Gets Slimed!
Ø We will not be having any reading logs during the
month of June but I ask you still have your student read 30 minutes a night.
Writing:
Ø We’ll finish our autobiographies and write some
informational text for next year’s 4th graders.
Assessments:
Ø We will still have our spelling and reading
assessments Friday mornings as usual.
Math
Getting Ready for 5th
Grade:
ü We will continue with our exposure lessons to 5th
grade material. Many students have commented how excited they are for 5th
grade math because they can do it already!
ü Mrs. Schram, our district math coach, will come in to
teach a lesson on toilet paper area and perimeter
Reflex:
ü Our class logs on to Reflex math fluency twice a week.
For maximum benefit they should do another 20-30 minutes at home. Many math
skills are dependent on fact knowledge!
