I am hoping to post FOUR fantastic things about fourth grade each day... Here we go!

1. We finished Rebecca Stead's When You Reach Me. We LOVED this book, and had a great time making text-to-text connections with Madeline L'Engle's A Wrinkle in Time.

2. We had library with Ms. Z and checked out some wonderful new books for the week.

3. We discussed ecosystems and wolves. We learned that overtime the wolf population in the USA is dwindling, due to humans and other predators. We hope to learn more about wolf populations in Minnesota and find out what our class can do to help.

4.  In math we learned how to multiply partial products. It was a brand-new method for a lot of us. We also rocked our multiplication table test, and realized that many of us need to study our 6's, 7's and 8's!
