Today the fourth graders learned about adjectives, adverbs, predicates, proper nouns and more with our Language Arts Mind Builders. Ask your child to show you the answers.
Next we did a Problem Solving Matrix to choose a restaurant that your child would like to eat at on Friday night. I kept this page, but you can see it next week in their binder. You can ask them what criteria they used to determine the best restaurant for your family.
Last we did more of the multi-step problems from Maharaja's Task. After doing three more problems I have challenged the children to create their own problem that the others will solve next week.
HOMEWORK:
Create a multi-step problem that requires division. On one sheet of paper, write the problem in four lines or less. Then, on a second sheet of paper, show how to solve the problem and fully explain why your solution works.
Be creative, write a problem no one else might think of, that might make me think twice.
Remember, if you need help, don't wait until next Tuesday morning to come see me, come sooner.
