A Look into 4th Grade-December
Here is a look at what we are working on and what is coming
next.
Reading:
We are currently working on our third unit, Little Things are Big:
Making Meaning of Poems. In this unit, students will read a
variety of poems paying attention to moods, sounds, word
choice, and images. They will notice how elements in the parts of
a poem work together to create meaning. They will transfer
knowledge of word choice, figurative language, and imagery
across texts.
Writing:
We are currently working on our third unit, Poetry. This unit will
allow the young writer the freedom to experiment with physical
space on the page, to savor the sound of the words they are
writing and think of them as drum beats, and, above all, to make
universal meaning out of close observations, thoughts, and
questions about the world and personal experience. These rich
experiences will provide our students the opportunity to read
and create poetry focusing on language, form, emotion, and
message.
Science:
All three classes are coming to the end of their second units.
Study guides will be sent home soon, and we hope to test before
Winter Break!
