Updates!

Another week has come and gone! Here's a sneak peek into our week in 4T.

• We learned about angles, quadrilaterals, measurement, and lines in math. 
• We did a Mystery Skype with a class in Iowa. We had a few technical difficulties in the beginning, and the teacher from Iowa said, "you must have one of the most patient, well behaved classes I have ever seen!" What a great compliment!  
• We continued to learn about the early settlers of New Hampshire. 
• We learned how to use dialogue in our writing to make our stories stronger.
• We learned about character traits and discussed the characters in Tiger Rising and Fish in a Tree. 

Questions to ask you child about their week:

• What was your job during Mystery Skype?
• What character do you like the best from Fish in a Tree? Why?
• What was life like for the first settlers of New Hampshire? 
• Why was it important for settlers to live near rivers?

Odds & Ends
