Indian Tribe Letters
November 23, 2009 |
|
| To conclude our unit of study on the earliest Native American Texans, our class has taken what we learned about each tribe's home, food, culture, and land region to write tribe letters. We used traditional Indian symbols and words to describe the activities of each tribe. We distressed and painted our tribe letters to look like buffalo hide. We will present these tribe letters to the other 4th grade classes on Monday. |

Weekly Facts Test
November 20, 2009 |
|
| We continue to work each week on our multiplication facts. On Fridays, we have taken a timed test over that week's math facts family. We just finished the 12s test, and students will receive a cola for successfully passing all 12 math facts tests. Beginning Friday, we will now be taking timed mised facts tests to work toward earning another cola or a candy bar, whichever the student chooses. It's a great way to reinforce these important math skills each week. Please remind your child to study, study, study those math facts each week! |

Students have been watching a video and reading facts about many different types of invertebrates. They will select a specific type to research and create a museum exhibit label for our invertebrates museum exhibit. Come visit soon! |
