Spelling and Science Test


Dear fourth-grade families,
            Your student will have a spelling test this Friday, Aug. 21st.  Students will be given a paragraph/letter/etc. with misspelled spelling words.  Students will be required to circle the misspelled words and write the correct spelling.  We will not be calling out the words for the students to spell.  Also, students will have a science test next Wednesday, August 26th.   It will be vocabulary matching and multiple choice.  Students should study the review they will do on Monday the 24th along with key words from chapter 7 and the chapter review at the end of the chapter.  Students are allowed to bring textbooks home to study.  Please let us know if you have any questions.

Working Hard

We are almost halfway through the third nine weeks.  Time is going quickly, but the snow days helped with that!  We are finishing up our colonial brochures, which we have been working on for several weeks.  We will then continue to prepare for the writing test and then move on to a research project.  Remember to keep studying your spelling words.  Next week will be suffixes.
