Our first week was a great success! We learned all about what fourth grade will be like, and we got to know each other better! We started to learn about geometry in math, and began Reader's Workshop. We were very excited to look through the books on our bookshelves and to borrow them!
Friday is going to be Creative Arts Day! This past Friday we had a poetry workshop, art and chorus. We are excited about starting "Technology Friday" next week as well!
Last Friday we also learned that we are allowed to learn to play a variety of instruments such as strings, brass and woodwind. Here is a link to the Franklin Public Schools String School. We were treated to a demonstration of these instruments by the Franklin Music Department. You can see a video of the instrument demonstration below.
Next week we will be learning more about geometry in math. We will begin Writer's Workshop and read much more!
From the Teacher's Desk:
I am looking forward to seeing you at our Parent Information session on Wednesday after school. I will begin our first session promptly at 3:00 so that I'll be prepared to begin our second session on time. If you are unable to attend, please let me know, and I will send home the information I discuss with your child.
