Count on Me in
4th Grade!
News from the class of Mrs. Mele &
Mrs. Karl
What We Are Learning
Reading: The students
have been using a helpful strategy to remember all of the information that they
need when responding to evidence-based questions. It is an acronym called METAL- Main idea,
Examples, Text Evidence, Analysis, and Link.
The students are doing a great job with this strategy, and they will
continue to use it next year in 5th grade.
Math: We have moved into our next chapter in math
on decimals. Even though the chapter on
fractions was a rigorous one, the students showed a lot of progress. With their
understanding of fractional numbers, the kids have made a smooth transition
into this chapter on decimals. They have
shown impressive improvement in their work and attitude! At home, remember to relate decimals to
money.
Social Studies & Writing In a
multidisciplinary activity, students are researching the climate, geography,
industry, and natural resources of a region in the United States. Ask your child which state in the region that
s/he has chosen to further research.
