Mrs. McClure – Fourth Grade

English
During the month of March we will continue to work in English with our Shurley Method labeling. The students have come a long way. We will continue to label as well as hit key areas in our class English book. We are zipping through and the kids are loving every minute of it. Remember English tutoring is at 3:00pm on Wednesdays.
Reading
We are currently reading the novel The Watson’s Go to Birmingham. I have started keeping the students review questions in my classroom in individual folders so we do not misplace these papers when time comes to study for the test. I have recorded these grades and the children have the chance to look the papers over before they are placed in their safety folders. We should be completing this novel when we come back from break. We will then watch the movie that goes along with the story we have read and will have an assignment that will follow this activity. As always, I will send out a study guide when we complete the questions for the last chapter of the novel. If you have any questions, please let me know.
BOOK REPORTS ARE DUE ON MARCH 26, 2010
Social Studies
We will be completing Chapter 8 which is discussing the Civil War and the end of Slavery in America. We will begin our next chapter for the year which is the discussion of the Turn of the Century. Here we will be discussing Oil, the Depression, Ranching and much more in Texas History. We will have a test this Friday, March 12, over Chapter 8.
