Update for the week of November 16th

Greetings!

It has been quite an exciting week here in fourth grade! Your children met their second grade buddies and created venn diagrams to learn more about each other. They have worked hard to strengthen their knowledge around fractions, and have started to add beautiful figurative language to their writing. It is hard to believe that we are almost at the end of November!

Classroom Announcements: 

• The Free Choice BEA is due on Monday, November 23rd. Everyone will have a chance to share their project in front of the whole class or in a small group. 
• Thank you all so much for your continued tissue donations! We have certainly been using them well!
• Your children will be "traveling" throughout the Northeast region of the United States very soon. Stay tuned for travel updates!
• Book Orders are due by this Friday, November 20th. I will be entering the orders at the end of the day, so please either order online or send a check and order form with your child. I sent home a reminder letter today with all of the Scholastic login information with the classroom code. 

Please ask your child about the "drops of joy" bulletin board located outside of our classroom. They'll be happy to tell you how their names may end up on a paper droplet!

Enjoy the rest of the week!

Best, 

Jen and Denise
