This week we worked hard to round numbers to any place, use details to determine the theme of a story or text and learned a lot about the Lenni Lenape Native Americans. Be sure to visit www.lenapelifeways.org to learn more about these amazing native people of New Jersey. We read the Power of W.O.W. and learned how working together can help people accomplish great things.
We voted for our Student Council fifth grade officers and voted for classroom representatives. Congratulations to all the winners!
Next week we will practice our Unit 1 math standards, continue writing our fictional narratives and practice more geography and landforms. Don't forget Pretzel Day on Friday, October 10th!

Friday Update
Our first week back at school was a busy one! We learned classroom procedures, revisited PBSIS expectations and started our fourth grade work.
We created Venn diagrams to learn what we had in common with a classmate.
In math, we began our exploration of place value. We also started using FrontRowEd.
In social studies, we started to learn about New Jersey and its location in the world.

Some reminders for next week:
Starting Monday, students in room 15 will enter school through door 4 and proceed to the classroom. They will enter the room at 8:55, and will be expected to be ready for the day by 9:02, when morning announcements begin.
If your child is leaving school early, please send in a note. That way he or she can be ready to go on time.
