This week we began reading Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing by Judy Blume. The students really seem to enjoy hearing about fourth grader Peter Hatcher and the antics of his brother Fudge. We will take a quiz tomorrow on the first 5 chapters of the book.
In math we have spent our time counting money and making change. We will finish up this chapter on number sense next week with decimals and take a test on Thursday. The test will be the same format as Ohio's fourth grade math achievement test. To see what these look like, click here and scroll down to grade four. You can then choose to download the math tests that have already been given as well as the reading and writing tests.
On Tuesday students will take a science test on the scientific method. We have practiced using the design process (aka scientific method) on two labs and will continue to use it throughout the year. The test will reflect questions on the fifth grade science achievement test which can be accessed through the above link. Just scroll down to fifth grade and select science.
