We are happy to announce that the Fourthies will head to Kings Dominion on Friday, May 9. This is a joint field trip with the 4th-grade boys from St. Christopher's. The field trip is science-themed and focuses on the science of roller coasters. All of the trip details are here. Please note that there is a form to complete on the field trip form about your daughter's lunch preference that day. We would appreciate having the form completed by Friday, April 4!
We finished our first chunk of concepts with fractions this week. The girls took a quick check in and did so well. Now that we are adding and subtracting fractions, we move to improper fractions and mixed numbers. Since this unit is so hefty, we will continue to lump it into smaller sections.
For Wordly Wise, we are moving a bit quicker through the lessons to ensure we complete most of the lists in the workbook. We will keep the Wordly Wise quiz updates in our agenda for the rest of the year. Today, we started a fun writing project where the girls interviewed a Fourthie from another class. We emphasized the importance of asking big questions to go a bit deeper into our understanding of one another. We even got to enjoy this gorgeous weather during our interviews!
Next week, the girls will write about their friend they interviewed and also create a magazine cover.
