Mrs. Connelly’s 4th graders packed a lot into last week — and it was only four days!
In ELA, they wrapped up their informative essays on woodpeckers, using Canvas and Google Docs to publish their final drafts. They also worked hard annotating passages and reading to explore how writers connect with nature. By Friday, they were ready to celebrate a birthday and show off some team spirit!
W can’t wait to see what they’ll accomplish with five full ones this week!

Reasoning with Shape & Numerical Patterns!
Mrs. Moss's 4th graders started by creating the first three steps of their own patterns. Then, they swapped with a partner—challenging each other to figure out and complete the 4th and 5th images in the pattern. Such a fun way to stretch their problem-solving skills!
