4B - Mrs. Yanosko

The past month has been a very busy one in fourth grade. We began the month with our class mass where Fr. Haren explained the details and specific processes that occur which helped us to understand the mass better. At the end of mass we were even able to ask questions. Since February is Black History Month, we have been reading a book listing important African Americans. Our class enjoyed making a banner to display that we are all unique, special, talented, and together, one family. In Reading class, we are working on being able to determine what makes a face or an opinion. Together, we are also doing a daily review of our reading comprehension skills. Every morning, we continue to do a review of our grammar skills in order to develop essential traits for effective reading and writing.
Persuasive writing has been enjoyed by all. We are fine tuning our essays and are even able to give valuable insight to help our classmates with their pieces of writing. Also, Fourth Grade just finished up learning about fast changes to our Earth in the form of earthquakes and volcanoes! Now, we are going to jump into weathering and erosion. The class will even get to do a couple experiments to illustrate how these two processes slowly change our Earth’s surface. For the past couple of weeks, Fourth Graders have been strengthening their math skills by writing factors and multiples for numbers. We have also been identifying prime and composite numbers while reviewing the concept of even and odd as well. Next month, we look forward to fractions! We are enjoying perfecting our skills with our recorders.  Although the weather has been cold and snowy, we have made the best of it and continue to enjoy each day that is full of learning, friends, and new adventures.
