Hey Parents,

Our book for the next unit is The Mostly True Adventures of Homer P. Figg, by Rodman Philbrick.  I am placing an order on Wednesday so please let me know if you would like me to order yours for you.  Here is the link to the Amazon page.  http://www.amazon.com/Mostly-Adventures-Homer-Newbery-Honor/dp/0439668182/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1329777946&sr=8-1

Hey Parents,

Next week we will have our Valentine’s Day party.  The fourth grade class is responsible for the Valentine’s hot potato game.  Also each student needs to bring a cake, pie, or cookies for the cake walk.  The party starts at 1:45 and all parents are welcome. 

This week we began our new unit on decimals.  They have been doing fantastic with this topic.  On Wednesday we will take our test.  Thursday we will start topic 13.  It centers on operations with decimals. 

In language arts we are moving on the subject and object pronouns and pronoun-verb agreement. 

Let me know if you need anything,

Trent
