Review!
  • As a class and in small groups, we will be reviewing difficult 4th grade math concepts as a review.  Small groups will be working on preparing for fifth grade!
Reading and Writing:
  • Small Group Novels: During novel rotations, students will use details to describe the settings and events in the story to help them understand.

  • Writing: Students are writing FOSSIL Stories:  The life of an organism and how it becomes a fossil.
Science:
  • Students will understand how fossils are formed, where they may be found in Utah, and how they can be used to make inferences.
Social Studies:
  • Students have been placed in Wagon Trains and have their own unique identities which inspire them to take on the challenge to leave “Missouri” and travel along the Hacker Trail to “Oregon.”  Ask them about their “journey” so far!
