Hi Girls!

Hi Girls!

I am so proud of you!  Mrs. Marshall says that you are working hard and doing a great job.  Keep up the good work.  Just a few reminders--remember to do Xtramath.org everyday.  When I return I will print any certificates that you earn.  Make sure you make use of your study halls today so that you finish your cards.

Christmas news!

The Fourthie Website has some very fun activities for you.  The first one that I would like you to do is on Everything Else.  Go to Writing Activities and start Job #1.  This is a great way for you to use your imaginations.  Be creative, but also remember to edit your work.  Mrs. Marshall will tell you when you are going to do Job #1.

Some reminders!

Check spelling.
Make sure you use capitals.
Check for ending punctuation.
Check for run-on sentences.

I read your vocabulary stories, and they were quite creative, but I did see a lot of run-on sentences!
Don't let that little annoying guy mess up your writing!

On Wednesday, you can go to Job #3 on the Christmas website.  You will be choosing three of your spelling words and learning to "sign" with them.  Watch the video.  Then go to the library database that we use and type in "sign language."  The signs will pop up.  Have fun with this!  Later, you will be signing with a partner.

How are those decimals coming along?  REMEMBER!  Decimals are a part of a whole, just the way fractions are.  Sometimes it makes sense to use decimals, and sometimes it makes sense to use fractions.  More on that later!

I miss all of you so much!  Keep working hard, and I will be back in a few days. We will have some serious fun when I get back!

This is the Christmas season, but it is always the season to be KIND.  Do something kind for a classmate today!  Kind words can really make someone's day!

Love,
Mrs. Roberts
