Weekly Update

On Monday, we have a special event. At 8:45, we will walk over to St. Christopher's to attend the 4th grade boy's Business Expo. This will be a great way for the boys and girls to interact in an academic environment. The girls do not need to wear field trip attire for this but their regular clothes.

With so few days left in school, the girls are working hard! They have enjoyed a pretend shopping project to practice adding and subtracting decimals. They had a $200 budget to work with and went "shopping" on several different websites. They have really enjoyed this project!

In their assigned groups, the girls are researching one of the five regions of the US and are choosing a way to share their research. We will finish this up next week.

Yesterday in pairs, the girls created videos using Flip.com for next year's Fourthies. The videos are precious so I want to share them with you.

I look forward to next week getting back to a normal schedule as we approach the final weeks of school. The girls will have their final ERB Milestone tests next week.
