February 2025
It is hard to believe that it is already February. We ended January with a wonderful week to celebrate Catholic Schools. We had many wonderful activities including raising money to help the children at St. Jude’s and making cards for sick children in our local hospital.
Fourth grade has been very busy learning and growing. We recently prepared Mass and will be preparing the first Lenten prayer service. We have discussed Abraham and Moses and will touch upon some of the other prophets in our Religion classes.
We finished reading “Secret School” and created a story quilt with pictures and summaries of the book. We began a new book, “Where the Mountain Meets the Moon,” and will continue to read and answer questions on it. For this book we will turn a cereal box into a book report. As always, we continue to read and practice skills as we read in our reading book. We have made it past the halfway point in our vocabulary lessons and continue to learn new words.
We are finishing up our life science section in science class as we discuss ecosystems. The students created beautiful tundras, deserts, grasslands, rainforests, and wetlands. Fourth grade will soon move to Earth Science discussing rocks, weather, and our solar system.
Math finds us working with fractions, learning to add and subtract both fractions and mixed numbers. We continue to review double digit multiplication and long division. The students have taken an interest in the game 24 which challenges them to turn 4 numbers into an answer of 24.
We continue to work hard in every area as we prepare to become fifth graders.
