Hi Parents! We have had a wonderful start to 4^th Grade! We truly have a great group of students. If you are in Mrs. Muhlbauer/Hall’s homeroom ONLY, please make sure you complete the Student Information Survey, if you have not done so already. It can be found here:  Student Information Survey Please remember to check our blogs for weekly updates as well! Below you will find what we are learning next week.
What are we learning?Reading:  We will be working on building reading stamina.  We will be enjoying some great books together.  During each read aloud, we will learn how to use the text to make inferences. Our CAFE strategy is Infer and Support With Evidence.
Word Work: Students received their first set of vocabulary words last Monday.  We will have a vocabulary test this Friday, August 23rd. We will also be studying the four types of sentences. 
Writing:  We will continue to review the essential parts of a paragraph.  We will also begin learning how to use the RACE (Restate the question, Answer the question, Cite the source, and Explain) strategy.

What about homework?  All homework assignments should be written in the agenda daily. Each night students should read 20 minutes and study their vocabulary words.

Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions or concerns. Thanks,Megan Hall
