Dear St. Jerome Fourth Grade Families, 

Thank you for all your contributions and support for Run for Bucks. The fourth grade class remained in second place. 

Here is a recap of the week:

Religion: Students learned about the Sorrowful Mysteries of the Rosary. We prayed a decade of the rosary with the St. Jerome school community. Students received the Saint Cereal Box Report Project packet. The templates for this project can also be found in Religion 4 in Google Classroom. This project is DUE Monday, November 3rd.  
Math: Students finished the unit on addition and subtraction strategies. 
Reading: Students read the text: Animal Adaptations and Spiders in the Wonders curriculum. We worked on finding the central idea and details to support the main idea.  A reminder that students need to have the book: Because of Winn-Dixie by Kate Di Camillo by next Monday, October 27th. 

Spelling: Students took their spelling test on words with prefixes. Students wrote their spelling  words for next week in their homework planner. Weekly spelling words can be found in Spelling 4 in Google Classroom. 

Science: Students went to PS Science class.
