The Hundred Dresses by Eleanor Estes is a timeless classic chapter book that shares a message in which the author tackles the issue of bullying and discrimination in a straight forward manner. Children can learn the message about dealing with tough decisions to stand up for friends, fitting in, and ultimately forgiveness. This has been a great "class read." After completing the last chapter, students will create individually designed life size paper dresses with a special message of compassion  hidden somewhere in the design. They will be placed on disply in the hallway.

A fiction book has been chosen by your daughter for the upcoming book report. The girls will take notes as they read at home. Please make sure to use a calendar to assist your daughter in managing and keeping up with her reading. You can help by estimating the number of pages that need to be read  to be completed by Thursday, September 27th.

Swim begins on September 18th. It would be helpful to begin setting up the swim bag prior to the swim date.

The girls have completed two weeks of Mindful Maths, working with large numbers written using both written numbers and words. Check out Maths on the Fourthie website and see just how large these numbers are! We continue to learn more about multiples and will begin looking at factors next week. Students continue to work on computation skills and math facts.

Personalized learning emphasizes learning about something that a particular student is interested in. The girls have been surveyed and are ready to begin gathering information in class about their topics. A final project at the end of the first quarter will be presented. These projects are completed during Personalized Learning Time in class.
