I hope you all had a great summer! I am so excited to be teaching your child this year. We will be using the Responsive Classroom Model in class which includes starting off the day with Morning Meeting. Students will take part in discussions and practice what we are learning in fun ways.
In Language Arts, we will be reading and analyzing the main character in the novel, Love that Dog, by Sharon Creech. We will also be writing poetry! In math we will continue the GoMath program starting off with place value. Let's not forget about Science! Students will become investigators and become scientists themselves with a lot of hands-on science activities. Last but not least, the fourth grade social studies curriculum includes learning about the geography of United States. Most importantly, our theme in grades 3 -5 will be, "How can we all show acts of kindness?" I can't wait to see all of you on August 29th!
