This week's story is called Letters Home from Yosemite. To practice the vocabulary online, click here. We will have a reading comprehension test on Friday.
There will also be a math quiz on numbers and number sense. Can your child read a number correctly? Can they write it in standard form and tell the value of each number? For example, in the number 365,415 the digit 6 is worth 60,000 because it is in the ten thousands place. Having an awareness of numbers up to the hundred thousands was a third grade expectation. In the fourth grade students are expected to also know the millions period (one millions, ten millions, hundred millions).
