4th Grade General News🗞
12/21 4th grade classes will be participating in a winter rotation of academic related activities. A letter will be going home with more information in the Tuesday folder.
- To access your child’s progress reports and report cards, please contact the front office for your SIS username and password information. ALL report cards are digital. NO paper based reports will go home.
- To help your child develop a sense of ownership and responsibility, motivate them with goals and celebrations. Consider these tips:
- For behavior, use the iShine Folders to create a weekly goal and let your child choose what they want to earn when they meet their goal. Behavior plays a key role for safety patrol selection in 5th grade!
- For academics, use the assessments that go home in the Tuesday folders to create a goal. Let your child choose what they want to earn when they meet their goal.
- For reading, set a monthly goal with a number of books they complete. A monthly rule of thumb is at least 3 chapter books a month or at least 4 nonfiction books a month. Let your child choose what they want to earn when they meet their goal.
- I Shine folders is a communication piece between parents and teachers to learn about your child's day. Please review daily and initial.

Reading 📚Lectura
- Unit 4 has started, focusing on "What do we learn when we look at the world through the eyes of others?" Students will be participating in book clubs again, using Historical Fiction texts. Through historical fiction texts, they will be able to learn about historical events and explain different perspectives through individual experiences.
- The book club is your child's MAIN priority. They will be using this book as their classwork and homework daily reading. They will create a reading calendar plan to help them organize their chapters for the week.
- Daily homework is to read for at least 20 minutes. Your child can use their book club book, books from home, books from NHE library or the public library, or use the books selected from Mrs. Barreras classroom library. A routine should be set in place in order to assure your child dedicates time to read in a quiet place. Technology devices should be out of sight to avoid distraction. This may need to be reinforced every so often to keep a consistent schedule.

Math 🔢Matemáticas
- An FSQ test will be administered on Tuesday December 6 on "Divide with 2-digit divisors".

One way to help them at home is to create flashcards for the multiplication table and quiz them out of order.
