Mrs. Alday’s 4th Grade News

Week of November 3-7, 2014

This week, we are focusing on:

·         Math – We are comparing fractions with like and unlike denominators. Please consider purchasing multiplication flash cards to help your child at home.  It’s much easier for them to solve these problems when they know their facts.

·         Reading – We are reading Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing. We are comparing and contrasting the theme of traditional stories.  

·         Writing – We are learning about prefixes, suffixes and root words.

·         Science – We are learning how to interpret data.

Important Dates:

·         November 11th – NO SCHOOL! Veteran’s Day

·         November 26-30 – Thanksgiving Break! NO SCHOOL!

·         December 8th – Field trip to the Desert Museum

Additional Notes:

·         Homework is now assigned in a weekly packet and is due Friday along with the reading log. Students need to be reading for 20 minutes every night.

·         Please have students bring in a sweater to wear inside the classroom.  It gets cold in here pretty fast.  Also, please make sure to bring in water bottles especially on PE days which are Tuesday and Friday.

·         Please monitor your student’s grades on Family Link. The website is https://schoolmaster1asp.tylertech.com/LPA/FamilyLink.

·         Please remember to sign and return your child’s Weekly Behavior Progress Report. Please see me if you have any questions.

·         My blog is now up and running. I will post spelling words and the weekly newsletter at www.mrsaldaysclass.blogspot.com.

·         If you have a question, contact me at dalday@lpatucson.org.

Thank you!

Mrs. Alday
