4th Grade Homework Sheet
Dear Students and Parents,
There is no school on Monday due to the President’s Day holiday. Please note that students are expected to spend twenty minutes reading an AR book. Accelerated Reader zone of proximal development levels were sent home in January for parent signatures and students are expected to read books in their appropriate levels. Some students are reading books above their ZPD levels and then failing the comprehension tests. Please check that your student is in fact reading a book in their level (which should be logged onto the February Reading Log).
Also, please look over your child’s Trumpet of the Swans Test. Many students did extremely well. This was a test of writing skills and comprehension, as well as vocabulary. Corrections will not be accepted. There will be another test given on chapters 13-end of the book. Please help your child in the weeks to come by studying before the test.
The math assignments for this week correlate with our Trumpet of the Swans book. I have been working with students to help them determine important information in the story as well as summary writing. Students will practice locating important information in this assignment as well as practice basic math skills dealing with money. We have begun this math project in class, and students are expected to find the answers in their books and complete it as their math homework for the week. Please assist your child in completing this assignment. They are expected to give their best effort and are allowed to bring their books home as long as they have them in class for our reading time and Writer’s Notebook assignments.
You can always reach me at the school office 881-2416 or by contacting me at the following email address with any suggestions or questions:
