Language Arts/Social Studies- We read the story entitled “My Brother Martin,” written by MLK’s sister. It was interesting and fun to hear his story from her point of view. Fourth graders will share January book reports on Monday, February 3^rd.

Spelling Words for THURSDAY, January 30^th: From “Ramona and Her Father.” We are going to do a whole-class literature study!

payday, disappear, saucepan, hamburger, million, serious, answer, amused, untangle, tiresome, Challenge Word: malicious

Math—Please keep practicing those facts! Third graders have begun multiplying and dividing by 3’s and 4’s this week. Fourth graders have begun long division and are interpreting remainders. Knowing those facts helps so very much!

Science- We have been learning all about plants and how they reproduce. We investigated leaves and used hand lenses to make observations. We will test over Chapter 1 on Wednesday, February 5^th. Be on the lookout for a study guide and Science Jeopardy!

Art- We made portraits of Martin Luther King, Jr.
