BUSY MINION NEWS - Week of October 10



This Week  It was another crazy week!  It was a short week (No School tomorrow), plus Necap Testing, and we were out straight getting projects ready for Open House.  We enjoyed having everyone who was able, visit for Open House.  It was nice to share everything we have been working on. We finished our NH Regions books and our Abenaki Coloring books.   In between everything else, we did spend some time working on Math problem solving and researching the Ice Age.  Today we will take some time to learn about the Bill of Rights through an online opportunity through Colonial Williamsburg Foundation that all the 4th graders will share.  We will also need to start cooking up some new projects to work on.
 
Next Week  We will continue NECAP testing on Tuesday.  We have four sessions left to take.  We will do a Literacy story next week, “My Brother Martin.”  We will focus on author’s purpose as well as common and proper nouns.  We will continue to move ahead with more difficult multiplication and start learning about the first settlements and towns of New Hampshire.
