PLEASE make sure you put Friday the 8th on your calendar for the school carnival. 4th grade will have an amazing human size sling shot the kids will get to shot off. It will be located in the gym .
Novels:
The novels the students will be reading are the following: Ophelia and the Marvelous Boy, Tuck Everlasting, Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing and Stone Fox. They will be receiving their novels today and will have until the 15th of April to finish the book . Like always, I will give them 20 minutes in class to read each day and they will have a schedule for them to follow.
I WILL NOT have "Reading Menus" or questions for them to find the answers while reading. They will be writing a summary for me each day during reading rotations and will turn in their summaries at the end for a grade. They also will be completing a Book Trailer during school to present on Friday the 15th . If a summary is not done, that will be 2 points taken off the total of 24( 2 points for each summary)
Nothing will be done at home unless they do not complete their reading in school. I have attached a picture of the schedule, I was not techy enough to figure out how to insert that on here.
