4th Grade is a big year for learning responsibility and accountability! Friday several children had to sit out of free centers because their reptile packet was not finished. The children had 2 weeks to complete the packet and some waited until the last minute to work on it and didn't get it done. They hopefully learned a lesson on responsibility. We will have more long term projects in the future to practice this important skill. Tomorrow, Monday, the animal reports are due. Several children have already turned their report in early! Good Job!! Hopefully, we will have everyone turn in their report on time. We went over what a report is and how to turn facts into sentences. I told the children that each topic needed to have 3 sentences covering it, except for the topic "How the animal protects itself". That topic could be one sentence. Many of the students found enough information from the book they checked out, but some kids found more information over the internet. Remember, mom, dad, or grandma can type the report, but please include the rough draft when turning it in.
Tomorrow, I will post an update of what is going on this week!
