Happy Leap Day 4th Graders!

1. This morning we had a surprise POWER MATH session. My power students worked on rounding numbers to the nearest tens and hundreds.

2. We read about the Minnesota logging industry in the 1830's. We look forward to visiting the History Center this Friday.

3. After lunch we all sat in the library and finished Gary Paulson's Hatchet. We discussed the meaning of prologues and epilogues. We then wrote notes to Gary Paulson suggesting titles for each of the 19 chapters. (It was a great practice for finding the main idea!) Literacy FLEW by. We were all shocked when it was time to pack up our things and go to music with Mrs. Sharp.

4. We played the drums with Mrs. Sharp. We look forward to our concert that is coming up later this spring.

Homework: February Math Calendar DUE TOMORROW. Spelling Evidence-options: paper plane, bubble letters, comic strip, sentences.

Have a lovely evening. I am very proud of all of your hard work today.
