 April 10th
MUM
 I made a mistake in my last posting.  The fourth grade students will be taking their math MCA test on Thursday and Friday the 20 and 21 of April.  I will spend the three days leading up to the testing reviewing.  Please keep practicing their multiplication and division facts.
MUR
The reading MCA testing will be the following week Thursday and Friday April 27 and 28th.  We will also continue to review.
April 2nd

MUM
The week of April 3-7 our class will be finishing with transformations.  And then start charts and graphs and probability.  We will continue to review skills in preparation for the MCA math test after spring break.  The students will be taking their MCA math test on Wednesday and Thursday April 19th-20th.  Please keep having the students practice their multiplication division facts.

MUR
The class is reviewing everything from different genre such as folktales, fantasy to nonfiction. They will also be reviewing figurative language in poetry and other passages. Identifying main idea and details as well as the theme of a story.  The students will be covering adjectives, adverbs and sentence structure in their grammar books.  Their reading MCA test will be Wednesday and Thursday, April 26-27.  The students will have vocabulary lesson 12 this week but during the two weeks of MCA there will be no spelling or vocabulary homework or test.

March 18th

MUM
Monday, March 19th I will introduce radius and diameter of circles.  Tuesday the students will do a review to prepare for the interim on Wednesday and Thursday.  Friday, the students will not have MUM.  I have started this trimester if a student forgets their homework  they will be staying in during recess Monday thru Thursday to complete the missing assignment.

MUR

Monday and Tuesday the students will be taking their interim.  When all the students are done most likely Thursday we will review the interim.  Friday, is the Read-a Thon so there will not be MUR.  We will continue to read A Wrinkle in Time.  There is no spelling homework or test this week, I will hand out the spelling homework to the students on Thursday.
