The Final Stretch!



Wow! This year has flown! We have had a great year! You all have accomplished so much from learning about Native Americans to writing a feature article to entertain and inform your readers. We have four quick weeks left. They will be very busy and will fly by, so let's go into them very mindful about the goals you want to achieve before you are fourth graders. These goals can be academic, social, and behavioral. Please write about three to four goals you are working on for the next four weeks and why you chose these goals. Write four to five complete sentences and use the correct punctuation.

Feature Article



This week, we have explored a variety of feature articles and found that each of them engage and inform the reader, have catchy titles, and include quotes from experts. We have started brainstorming topic choices and discussed subtopics which will organize our articles even more. Share with us one or more of your topic choices and a few bits of information about them. Think about what you are passionate about! Write 4 to 5 complete sentences with capital letters and periods. Have fun!

Pioneer Hour Reflection






We had wonderful time sharing our Westward Expansion projects and work Monday! I am curious. What was your favorite activity that we did during this unit? Was is the journal, the iBook with widgets, QRcode with audio, reading Joshua and Hattie's journals, or brain tracking or viewing to learn with Little House on the Prairie? Please give a detailed explanation about what you liked or did not enjoy as much. Maybe you'll influence how we explore pioneer life next year!  Write four to five complete sentences. Check your punctuation.
