Literacy
RL.4.10: Students will be focused on close reading by looking at several different structures of text. Students will begin to make connections with the text while also answering specific questions regarding the text. Students will continue to provide evidence while reading and be able to clearly state their reasons for thinking. Students will close read in order to understand exactly what the text is trying to teach them.
Writing
W.4.1: Students will draft, edit, revise, and publish a persuasive essay. Students will begin the drafting step of the writing process by using the box and bullet method. Students will be able to develop a thesis statement and give three supporting reasons.
Math
Students are continuing to practice measurement conversions. Students will learn how to convert units from a larger unit to a smaller unit. Students should know the conversions for weight and mass (pounds to ounces & kilograms to grams), capacity (gallons, quarts, pints, cups & liters to milliliters), and time (hour, minute, second).
Students will also continue practice multiplication and division.
4.NBT.5: Multiply a whole number of up to four digits by one digit whole number, and multiply a two digit numbers, using strategies based on place value and properties of operations.
4.NBT.6: Find whole number quotients and remainders with up to four digit dividends and one-digit divisors, using strategies based on place value.
Science
Students will be conducting research and completing experiments that center on understanding of ecosystems. Students will understand the effects of environmental changes, adaptions and behaviors that enable animals (including humans) to survive in changing habitats.
Social Studies
Students will continue to learn about the development of North Carolina and its history. Students will be studying the Civil War and North Carolina's involvement. By studying this significant time students will be able to explain North Carolina's major conflicts as a result of this war.
