SPELLING TEST NEXT TUESDAY

Fourth grade completed a unit on Tall Tales in Language Arts. Next week the students will be creating tall tales of their own. Thus far the favorites are John Henry and Paul Bunyan; Pecos Bill and Thundering Sue not so much.

In history we are working on our regions of Texas and the salt relief maps turned out beautiful! I am not sending them home just yet because we are going to label cities and landmarks with flagged toothpicks.

In math the students are picking up quickly on the long division cycle: Divide, multiply, subtract, drop! D*M*S*D Keep working on those multiplication/division flash cards!
