Happy October Everyone,
Thank you to everyone that gave to the Fall STEM Fundraiser. You helped our class win a virtual field trip to the Jacksonville Zoo and Gardens. In a year of no field trips this will be a welcomed treat for the students. Your generosity will also help all of the students at JBE have STEM resource next school year.

This week in math we will begin Module 3. Module 3 is a big unit we will work on application of the area and perimeter formulas, strategies for solving multiplication and division strategies, finding factors and multiples of numbers, and prime and composite numbers. We will begin this week with application of the area and perimeter formulas. Students will apply what they learned in 3rd grade for finding area and perimeter. This year our work will center more on figuring out missing dimensions when either the area or perimeter is known.
For example:
*The perimeter of a rectangle is 120 cm. The length is 20 cm. What is the width of the rectangle?
*A rectangle is 2 meters wide. It is 3 times as long as it is wide. What is the length of the rectangle?
I want to assure everyone that even though student minute counters reset at the beginning of the week on i-Ready, I can see all of the minutes that students complete. I can customize the calendar to show me all of the minutes in a specific date range. I set the calendar to show me Friday to Friday. Unfortunately students do not have this ability.
This week in science we will learn about the states of water. In fourth grade that means taking our knowledge of liquids, solids, and gases and focusing on how the molecules behave. Fun Fact, Water is the only naturally occurring substance on Earth that exists in all three states. We will also learn what it takes for water to change state.
We will also study another physical property of matter; magnetism. Students will take a look at why magnets behave the way they do and what factors make a magnet attracted to a magnet.
Monday: Science: Complete Conservation of Mass worksheet.
Math: Complete 40 minutes of i-Ready (due Friday)
Tuesday Math: Lesson 2 Worksheet
Wednesday: Science: Lesson 4 Digital Lesson What Are the States of Water and Lesson 5 Digital Lesson What Are Magnets
Thursday: Math: Lessons 3 and 4 Worksheet
Friday: i-Ready and science digital work is due
Have a GREAT week!!
