While we are well into the fourth grade year by now, I an excited by many of the successes I have seen so far. We have just about completed a unit on the solar system, and we have learned revealed many mysteries of the cosmos. In writing we are working on factual reports using various science texts. This has been challenging for a lot of the students, as understanding the language and developing our own main ideas is not easy.
We rotate for reading groups and math groups each day. The groups that work in Mr. Robinson's class have ambitious goals; and we are working on standards that exceed grade level expectations. Perhaps the most anticipated part of each week are Friday's Clicker tests. All of fourth grade is working hard, and there is a lot of collaboration between each fourth grade class. I am always looking forward to what we may do tomorrow!

We are studying the Solar System as well in our fourth grade room at Alsup. If you are interested in checking out our planet videos, watch them on our blog, www.room24.blogspot.com. We would love to hear all that you learned about the Solar System.
Hey Wesley,
I was just going to drop a comment about Jeff's class studying the solar system too, but he beat me to it. It would be sweet if your class commented on the films made by his students. I know you have a real pride in your film making prowess over there at Monaco, so I am sure the comments will be helpful and insightful.
