This week, 4th graders reviewed what they have learned so far about European colonies in North America. They played Around the World and competed with a Kahoot! They took a quiz on the information today.
In language arts, the students learned two more morphemes, two more vocabulary words, and read two chapters in our novel.
In addition, we read a series of picture books to prepare for an upcoming writing project. We charted our observations of the writing. Students noticed similes, personification, and more.
The focus and the highlight of the week for 4E was our class play, “The Mysterious Case of the Missing Ring.” With only 2 1/2 weeks between winter break and our show to rehearse, we were feeling a little nervous before today’s assembly. I am so proud of how they did! Not only did they deliver a wonderful performance, the class also worked together to set the stage between scenes, pull the curtain, manage their props, and create the scenery! They were up there all by themselves. Way to go, 4E!
Once we returned to the classroom, the students thoroughly enjoyed the delicious cake and some ‘ring’ pops. Fan mail has started to trickle in from other classes, and we look forward to reading more of it next week!
