Updates!

Dear 4T Families,

I hope everyone had a wonderful February vacation! We had a great week in 4T. Here is a peek at some of the learning we did.

Reading: We began our second round of social issue book clubs. Again, please encourage your child to talk about their reading at home with you. The issues they are reading about are problems that everyone experiences and provide great opportunities for discussions.

Science: We spent time exploring light and sound.  We created sound waves with jump ropes and explored how light travels through a variety of materials.



Math: We began learning all about fractions. This week we used manipulates and number lines to investigate equivalent fractions. We also used Skittles to help us understand fractions!


Writing: Students are in the middle of writing books all about the Industrial Revolution. Students are working with a partner on their book and I am excited for their finished product. They will upload them to Seesaw for you to see!

We had a Mystery Skype with a class from Texas.


We also did our first Breakout EDU which is an educational version of the popular Escape Rooms. Be sure to ask your child about their experience!


Please remember to send in the Lowell permission slip forms.  

Have a wonderful weekend!
Ms. Tingle
