Fourth Grade Happenings!

Our booth display for Campus School's Centennial Celebration turned out wonderful! Thank you for your support in making this project such a success!!!

 


Happy 100th Birthday Campus School!!


A Few Updates...

- Students will take three timed multiplication quizzes this week. The "timed factor" is important, because students need to be fluent in their multiplication facts - in other words, they need to know them backwards and forwards! It is imperative that you work with your child, in order to help them with this important skill.

-The fourth grade teachers recently met to discuss our Wordly Wise curriculum. This year, we have decided to integrate Wordly Wise into our Daily 5 reading curriculum, and eliminate the spelling portion of our weekly Wordly Wise assessment. It is important that students are working hard to spell words accurately on a daily basis, instead of solely studying them for a weekly spelling test. Another big change from last year, is that students will complete weekly Wordly Wise "Tic Tac Toe" vocabulary activities during class, rather than as Homefun.

- On Thursday, September 29th, we are going to the Brooks Museum! If you are driving, please be prepared to depart Campus School @ 8:30am. We will return to school around 10:30am.

- On Friday, September 30, we will visit the Elmwood Cemetery! Our reservation is from 10:00 am - 12:00 pm. Please be prepared to depart Campus School @ 9:30 am. We will have lunch in the picnic area after our tour, and then we will return to Campus School @ 12:40pm.
*PLEASE REMEMBER TO PACK YOUR CHILD A SACK LUNCH FOR OUR ELMWOOD CEMETERY TRIP!!
