Why do some inventions change history?Students closely read different leveled passages about various inventions throughout history. After reading and considering the key question above, students worked with others who read about different inventions. Students summarized their reading, shared how the evidence in the text helped to answer the key question, and then used the entire group's contributions to craft a written answer. Students on TEAM 4W are excellent collaborators. I was thrilled with the work they produced together! PORTFOLIO BOXESAfter the OAA Reading test, students worked on their portfolio boxes for housing their body of work from the year. Photos, Mod Podge, and sharpies were used for decorating. They turned out so cute! It was fun to see the kids enjoying looking through old photographs from the year. Final products will be on display in our classroom during Grand Affair and will come home at the end of the year. MARKET DAY!4th Grade Market Day is MAY 29th!
Our 4th Grade Market Day project kickoff was this week! Students are super excited for the next four weeks of learning, preparing, marketing, and finally selling their product or service. Please ask your child to see his/her business portfolio which includes the following details: CALENDAR---includes due dates for their Business Proposal, Market Reflection, as well as dates for the 4th Grade Business Expo and Market Day. CHOICE BOARD ACTIVITIES----activities students will have class time to work on which will earn them market dollars for spending at the 4th Grade Market. MARKET DAY ACCOUNT MANAGEMENT DOCUMENT----where students will keep track of market dollars earned. THE BIG PICTURE…. Students in 4W have a business partner. It is up to the partnership to decide upon a product or service to market and sell to other 4th graders on Market Day. Part 1 of the Business Proposal is due on Monday, May 5th. After getting your parent approval (signature), students will turn the proposal in to me for my approval. Each partnership is asked to have 40 items to sell. Students are encouraged to think creatively! EXAMPLES: kid created crafts (book marks, hair bows, science experiment kits) baked goods NON-EXAMPLES: Store bought teddy bears Ele' cupcakes TEAM 4W is VERY excited and motivated! More details to come…
