Wow! What an amazing lightning storm before the rain began. I hope you were able to see it with your kids! As I look ahead to the math plans for this week, I realize that we need to have a little quiz before beginning thousandths and rounding. So we'll do a quick quiz on Tuesday, before moving on to the final lessons of this initial unit. The students have had ample practice with tenths and hundredths and should do fine. I will also send out a study guide on Monday, which will be due on Friday.  There will be some problems that we haven't covered, but they can begin working on it to review for the unit test which will be the following week. That's it for now. It was nice to meet several of you on Wednesday night; we've got a great group of kids in here for math!

Good morning, math families! I apologize for not getting this up and running sooner. It's not my quarter for writing the fourth grade blog so this one just slipped my mind. In any case, better late than never! We have a great group of kids this year in my section. It's a small group because we lost a few to other schools. So we are a mighty 15 strong, which makes it nice and easy to teach. We have begun using our books this week and the first unit is decimals. After being introduced to decimal place values up to thousandths we'll begin working through the operations using decimals. I look forward to meeting you on Wednesday night to introduce myself and to discuss my classroom policies. Enjoy your weekend!
