Good Afternoon Parents,
Our students have been working very hard the past few weeks in math, writing and reading. As the GA Milestone inches closer, I have been finding review websites that will help the children remember everything we have learned in 4th grade so far.
It is very important that your child gets practice on the computer. The note that was sent home on Tuesday indicates that our test will be online and paper and pencil. This means that students need to be able to read off of a screen and also need to be prepared to type their answers. Below is a list of websites that will help your child review and practice.

Here is a list of websites for practice End of Grade Tests. It is imperative that you and your child take an ELA practice and a Math practice. There are some tricky problems that require 2, 3, even 4 steps! Please click the subject you want to complete, Go to EOY Practice Tests, Click on computer based Test, a pop up will appear and follow the directions.
Computer Based Practice Tests-ELA and Math/
These are the websites to past tests from New York. These are also an excellent review for students but are only paper and pencil.
NYS ELA Practice Tests
NYS Math Practice Tests
There are also a bunch of website on the right side of this blog, so don't forget to look through them. Please do not hesitate to email me or comment if there are any other types of websites you would like to help you and your child.
Thank you for everything that you do!

Week of March 2nd-Read Across America
Hi Parents,
I hope you enjoyed our "snow days" with your children last week! This week we are working very hard. Here are a few notes about this week.
We have been learning how to measure angles in math using protractors. I do not have enough protractors to send one home with each child, I would greatly appreciate if you could purchase one for your child. You can find them at the dollar tree, Wal-mart, or target, and I am sure more places sell them as well. They are not to expensive and it would greatly help if your child could practice measuring angles at home.
In writing, students are finishing their literacy essays. Their final draft, rough draft, and pre-writing are due on Thursday, March 5. Students will have time in class but will also need to working at home. Final drafts can be hand written or typed and must include a picture.
In reading we are actively working on comparing and contrasting using a story called "Could this Doll Hurt You?" Students should be reading this at night.
For science, students are learning about the moon phases. There is a song on our edmodo which the students can listen to to memorize the phases. They are also keeping a tracker in their interactive notebook this week of what the moon looks like each night.
This weeks spelling words are from sort 22. There test and spelling contract are due on Thursday March 5.
