Announcements for August 23-28
Parents,
This week is a very important week because we officially start diving into content. This week, for our writing convention, we will practice identifying subject and predicate in complete sentences. It is very important that your student is able to correctly place periods (and other sentence-ending punctuation) throughout a paper. Please, please check your students journal this week and help them with periods! This is also our first week to discuss the writing process! Please work with your student on brainstorming activities. One of the most challenging tasks in fourth grade writing is extracting details. Ask your students questions about their topics. Where they were, who they were with, what they were doing, why? Ask them sensory questions? What did you smell, taste, hear, feel, see?
Journal Check!
Please remember that our first journal check will be this Friday, August 28. If you have not yet purchased a journal for at home, you may use loose leaf paper!
Sight Words!
Remember that the first due date for sight word homework will be September 4th. There will also be a quiz on that day. Here are the sight words for the next two weeks. They are IRREGULAR VERBS. It is extremely important for students to understand this.
