Ms. Urciolo- 4th Grade

May

What a marvelous May it is!

 

Religion: We are learning about the Beatitudes. Just like with the commandments, we will learn about each Beatitude in great depth and then take a test. We are focusing on applying these important aspects to our daily life and how to lead strong, moral Catholic lives.

To review any of the chapters or units go to:

Reading: We are continuing with our novel, Babe, The Gallant Pig. This is a very fun book with lots of great activities planned. Please start saving a shoebox to bring in for a diorama we will make in class after we finish the novel.  After Memorial Day we will begin our Greek Myths unit, a true treasure for the fourth grade.

For our last reading reflection, it is free choice.  The only requirement is that it is a book you have not read before.

 

***OUR SCHOLASTIC ORDERING NUMBER IS J82MW****

Social Studies: We are learning all about WWI, the Great Depression and WWII.  Marylanders had a huge impact on America and we will be focusing on their contributions.

Grammar: We are working on prepositions.

We did a great job on our Grandparent Books! They are here and will be given out on Grandparent’s Day- please contact me if you need the books before then.

During our enrichment time on Fridays, each classroom in the school has picked a country.  The country our room is assigned is France.  We will learn about France's culture, cuisine, language, geography, music, art, and much much more.  If you have anything from France that you would like to share with our class, please feel free to do so!

Other things to look forward to are:  Field Day May 30th, May Crowning May 15th.  Field trip to the Baltimore Orioles Field Trip Day May 23rd.   No school May 25th and May 28th
