READING & WRITING

4th Grade participates in book clubs where groups of students are assigned novels and different tasks to complete within their group. The book clubs focus on deepening fluency & comprehension. Grade 4 is currently reading The Homework Machine by Andrew Clements. Students  are working in socially-distanced book clubs to summarize, analayze, and dig deep into the characters. In wrting we are learning about personal narratives.  We are focusing on small  moments and emotions. 

During spelling instruction students will use Spelling City and their Spelling notebook to complete their work. Word lists will be assigned on Mondays (posted in Spelling City). Students will complete classwork word sorts and other activities on Mondays to become familiar with their words. Spelling stories will be due on loose leaf OR submitted through google classroom every Friday unless otherwise noted by the teacher. Assessments are also on Fridays unless otherwise noted in the student's planner.
