Week of 3/5

Dear families,
We have had a very sucessful and BUSY week in Fourth grade! A huge THANK YOU to you for your help with our African American Living Museum! The students wowed us at the PTA performance Tuesday night, and again as we presented to the Kindergarten and First graders. We had a great Young Scientist lesson that reviewed Solar System, and a fun STEAM Day lesson that allowed everyone to chew gum.

Next week we will have a more regularly scheduled week. We do have a field trip the Virginia Historical Society on Wednesday, March 7. We will leave Trevvett at 9 am and return by 11:45. This is a free trip but I do need a permission slip from each student so they can leave campus on a school bus.
Next week in Reading we will continue to work on cause and effect. The students will take a Power test Reading assessment on Wednesday, March 7. We will take it after Music at 1 pm. The students will also have a vocabulary quiz on Friday, March 9. In Math we will continue our unit on measurement by learning about volume and capacity.
We will take our Virginia Studies test on the Civil War on Tuesday, March 6. In Science we will begin a unit on animals and ecosystems.
Please help your child remember to practice their recorder every day for at least five minutes. They need to bring their recorders to school every Wednesday until April 27 learn their songs with Mr. Coffman.
