  1. Welcome to ELA Curriculum Night!Your Hosts are:Mrs. Busby & Mrs. Curtin

  2. 4th grade JUMP! • Increasing stamina • Ability to follow multiple step directions • Utilize several strategies for problem solving in the classroom, promote independence

  3. Reading Comprehension • Literal Comprehension: • Right there answers • Go back in the text and point to them • Underline and number where you found the answer • Ex: In the story Goldilocks and the 3 Bears, what did Goldilocks do first in the house?

  4. Reading Comprehension • Inferential Comprehension: • Think about the situation and what the actions mean • Have a thought about what is taking place and support it with evidence of why you think that way. • What in the text made you think that? • Ex: How is Papa Bear, Mama Bear and Baby Bear feeling when they came home? Use evidence from the text to support your answer.

  5. Homework Expectations • First 8 weeks will be writing homework coming home Monday due on Friday. • Writing will be linked to the story we read or listen to in class multiple times throughout the week. Students will not need the story to be successful. • Prewrite and directions will be done Monday in class. • There will be a conventions and writing target at the top of the homework that changes each week. • The convention target will be taught throughout the week during writing and we will be looking for it in the homework if applicable.

  6. Buzz Word!Homework • Each week with homework will be a Buzz Word sheet. We are working to build vocabulary and understanding of words that are common academic vocabulary. • Students are to complete the sheet and return it to share on Friday. • They can get the definition from any credible source as long as they are the ones practicing looking it up.

  7. Homework Grading • Students will get credit for completing the homework, a score of 1, 2, or 3. • On Friday students will peer edit with partners focusing on the convention targets of the past and present. • We will also look over the homework checking the target skill. • If a student receives a 1 on the homework, we request that it goes home to get a parent signature and is returned.

  8. Communication • Each team will send home one weekly e-mail on Friday or Monday about upcoming events and past learning that has taken place. • NEW THIS YEAR! – 4th grade website with many resources. • Link http://staff.camas.wednet.edu/blogs/gve4thgrade/ • If you have a concern about your student or something to share with your child’s teacher, please e-mail both teachers on the team, as we see each student as both of our responsibilities. By including both teachers we can communicate clearly and effectively.
