Math: We will begin to investigate algebra this week. Grade threes will determine the missing number in equations involving addition and subtraction while grade fours involve multiplication and division. This concept is familiar to students as they have seen it in class before.
Language: We continue writing adventure stories. When these are complete we will move to grammar. 
Homework: In addition to Raz Kids and Dreambox this week, have your child practice telling time. Grade fours need to tell time to the nearest minute and grade threes to the nearest five minutes. Students should also practice timing events such as driving from place to place, taking a bath or watching tv. This will help them in our upcoming unit on telling time.
