We will be having weekly spelling tests on Thursdays. If your child makes a 90 or above,  they will not take the test again on Friday. I will keep the better grade. This gives students a chance to see if they need to study more. The students will be getting a list on Friday for the next week & it will be posted in our weekly newsletter.

Writing & Grammar

We will be doing various types all year long! Students will be writing biographies, poetry, expository writing, narratives, journals, and much more! I keep a writing folder with all their writing all year. It will be fun to see their improvement throughout the year.

We will be learning a new set of homophones daily. We will also learn grammar rules to apply to your writing.


Accelerated Reader

 We want kids to enjoy reading and be rewarded in a fun way for their awesome reading. I have lots of fun rewards I will be giving for AR points. The library has tons of brand new books that I can't wait for yall to read!

Reading & Book Reports

We will be reading class novels this year including Charlotte's Web, Shiloh, The Mouse & the Motorcycle, and Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing.  Each book will cover many different skills.

Students will be assigned different book reports this year! We will be doing a diorama, cereal box book report, and a mobile. These are fun ways to incorporate our TEKS. Please look for more info each six weeks in students' planners.
