LOTTO!

Reading Lotto? You should be
reading your 2nd book. Make sure
you are reading 4th grade chapter

book to check if your book is all right.

Word Power!

We have practiced a week of Word Power as an

entire class. Last week we practiced by table
groups. We actually went through the process of
writing meaningful sentences and turning them in
for credit.
This week we will work as partners. We will fill
out our vocabulary cards on Monday and then
write 2 meaningful sentences on Monday,
Tuesday, and Wednesday. If the sentences are
done in class, it will not impact homework. IF
sentences are not completed in class, they will
have to be sent via email that evening. Everyone
will receive a Word Power grade on Thursday.
Please look at your childs blue folder to see the
grade s/he received. If the grade is a 1, please
sign next to the grade to verify that you saw it. If
you have not yet gone to our website to read
about Word Power, please do so this week. It will
provide much more detail.

Word HUNTING!

This week the students will

embark on a word hunting
adventure. When they
read, at home or at school,
they should use a post-it as a
bookmark. As they run across words they
dont know, they need to write the words on
the post-its. All of these post-its are due
every Monday at school. They become a
personal word bank that we use at school for
Word Power. More details are written on the
Word Power link on our class website. Im
expecting 20 words by Monday, September
21st.
