Practice & Memorize lines for the Oregon Trail Play: Here is a link to the script you can use if needed to print another one. Tomorrow morning is a whole play run through!
4th Grade Math: Students are working on their Dream House Project this week. Students who are not caught up have a goal is to draw out the 4 required rooms and record the dimensions and cost on the budget update sheet. They may move onto planning the special room, but should not complete "Parts 1, 2 or 3" in the packet just yet. Our next Math class is Monday, when we will resume work on the floor plans.
Summer Math Review: If you are looking for summer math resources for your student, the following is a link to workbooks designed for review of concepts in mathematics by grade level. Each section has explanations and examples designed to help students review material at their grade level. The pages are set up to not be overwhelming, and generally focus on one concept at a time.

Props: The students are encouraged to bring in props they will need ASAP. Costumes can come together a little later.
Home on the Range and Wayfaring Stranger: Here are the lyrics to Home on the Range and Wayfaring Stranger. We'll be practicing these songs in class and during music throughout the next couple of weeks, but singing performances are always better with more practice! Please encourage your student to practice over the weekend! Below are YouTube links to the songs in case it is easier to sing to with music and another voice!

Sneak Peak Day:
Today, Strawberry had the pleasure of inviting Temescal third graders to experience some of our math and writing exercises. Students worked in pairs to determine the probability of rolling two die. They then used the data from their probability rolls to design a Gold Rush board game!

After snack, Strawberry and Temescal students used lines from books and newspaper headlines as prompts to begin creative writing.
