Plays of Week #2 (Our 1st Full Week)

Congratulations on completing our first full week of school as Team Meyer!
Reminders for this upcoming week...
Tuesday 26th = One Sole Purpose will be at our school to measure for free shoes
Thursday 28th = Panther Pride Assembly hosted by Mr. Greiner
Friday 29th and Monday Sept. 1st = No School

Reading = A big part of our reader's workshop at the beginning of the school is setting up our routines and building stamina.  I have been very impressed with how independently Team Meyer has been able to jump right back into reading.  We have been thinking about how we choose books in fourth grade, what we do when a book doesn't us, and how we share our thinking.  Lastly, great job with our first two days of Reading Logs!  Thank you for your help at home! :)

Writing This week in writing we will be taking our beginning of the year writing prompt to see where everyone is individually as a writer.  Also, last week we began writing setting up our Writer's Notebook.  The decorations on the covers are all very unique and I am excited to learn more about each teammate through their writing.  We will continue to generate ideas for writing this week.

Math = We have begun Chapter 1 over Place Value.  We have worked with three lessons so far and will continue in the Chapter this week.  Some key concepts this week is to order numbers, use place value to round, and using a four step plan to problem solve.  Also, this week with will be talking about how Math Workshop is going to look in our classroom this year! 

Meet the Line-up for...
