Fourth grade started the week with a mess! Each student followed a recipe 4 times to make four lumps of colored dough and through the week we will be creating Texas salt dough relief maps. The room was a bomb of flour, salt and water afterwards, but it was fun!
Tomorrow is WW#5 Test. I will then hand out the next week's spelling list. We are continuing writing using outlines. We have been going through a variety of expository prompts. This last week I gave the students a choice of what they would like to write about and Tamar Cohen gave a great suggestion of writing an expository paper on Laura Ingalls Wilder since I have been reading the Little House on the Prairie books. It was a fantastic idea and they wrote an expository 5 paragraph biography! Great work!
In science we are moving forward onto animal adaptions.
In math we are moving into long division so be practicing those multiplication/division facts!
