Office Hours - Got a question about Room 107 and what we're learning?  Join me in Room 107!  I was here last week, but realized I didn't publicize it ... So October's "family office hours" will be Wednesday, October 23 from 3:30-4:30.  If you plan to come after 4:00 (when the office closes), let me know in advance so I can be sure to look for you!

Upcoming Dates:

  • Mon, Oct 7 - Run Club
  • Mon, Oct 7 - DTE Assembly
  • Tues, Oct 8 - Mr. Guy Self- Regulation Assembly
  • Thurs, Oct 10 - Bennie Literacy Walk - wear Bennie Blue!
  • Fri, Oct 11 - ACE award assembly

What we're Learning:

  • Reading - Our whole class reading strategy has been focused on visualizing and now we are working on identifying main ideas. 
  • Writing - The goal for fourth graders is to be able to write two paragraphs - we have been working on writing in paragraph format.
  • Math - Our focus is on factors and multiples.
  • Science - Our driving question in science is “How is this place on Earth going to change over 10, 100, 1,000, 10,000, and 1,000,000 years?”  The "place" we are investigating is our very own Bennie Courtyard!
  • Social Studies - We are finishing up with our study of Economics and will begin discussing geography next week.
  • Cooking - It took 7 days to pull off the 7 Layer Bean Dip!  Next week we'll be making Maci's Easy Chicken Noodle Soup.
  • Classroom Community - We have been talking about how we can make Room 107 and Bennie a kinder place.  We drew some inspiration from this "Kid President" video:
