Today your student should have brought home some more information about the upcoming Book Fair and connected activities. We start Book Fair Bingo next Monday. That's always an exciting time for the class.
Sometime this week a sheet will come home with your assigned time for a parent/teacher conference. If you find your time won't work, let me know and we'll reschedule.
On Friday, your child will be bringing home his or her report card, an AR report for 1st Quarter, and a sign-up sheet for this year's Christmas service. Our Christmas services will be the Sunday before Christmas, December 22, at 8:00 a.m. and 10:30 a.m.
The 4th Graders got an assignment from Mr. B. in Health class today that will be due next Tuesday. Many students were working hard to finish much of it today. A few, however, heard "next Tuesday" and decided that meant they didn't need to worry about it now. Ask your student how much of it they already have done.
We had our Unit 2 Memory Quiz this morning. The students also have a Unit 2 Religion Test worksheet that is "open book." They may use their Religion books and Bibles to complete it. A new memory sheet (yellow) for Unit 3 was in their mailboxes today. The verse for Lesson 25 is due tomorrow.
We learned some new math concepts today: factors and products, commutative property, identity property, and zero property. In case you need a review, factors are the numbers being multiplied. The product is the answer of a multiplication problem. For example, in the equation 3 x 4 = 12, 3 and 4 are the factors, and 12 is the product. The commutative property simply means the equation can be flip-flopped: 3 x 4 is the same as 4 x 3. The identity property means that whenever you multiply by 1, the product is the other number. The zero property means that no matter what you multiply by 0, the product is 0.
