Building & deepening
a culture of reading!

Readers in room 20 have begun their 4th grade year by reflecting on times when reading was the best it could be. I've  learned that they have had many great reading moments in their lives already! In addition, students have reflected on making this year's reading life the best it can be, and all students have made realistic reading goals for 2020-2021.
 

Authors in room 20!

The young writers in room 20 will begin the year  by writing true narrative stories. Young authors in room 20 write almost every day and will learn how to create narrative stories from small moments in their lives. The students will learn many strategies to help them generate ideas for stories.

Speaking the language of Mathematicians!

  Math time is an interactive time in room 20.  Oral expression of math reasoning and logic is reinforced at every step of the problem solving process. The importance of using math vocabulary is emphasized and modeled for students to learn by example.
Automaticity with the math facts is mandatory for students to maintain  success in mastering the new Math standards. Please take 3 minutes every day to orally check your students knowledge of the math facts!
