January 12- 16

Good morning!

We have and awards assembly this morning at 9:45, hope to see you there!

This week we are working on TEKS 4.10A, Author's Purpose.  Students must be able to explain the difference between stated and implied purpose for and author to write a test.

Stated purpose- the author tells you why they are writing

Implied purpose- the author makes you use evidence and clues to figure out their purpose

We work with three reasons author's write in fourth grade: PIE

Persuade- to make you do, think, or believe something

Inform- to provide factual information about a topic

Entertain- to make you laugh, cry, or be amused by their writing

Students are working on Food Chain vocabulary and have homework tonight that will be due on Wednesday: Food Chain p. 81

We will have early release for students on Thursday at 12:45 for UIL competition which our school is hosting.

Thanks for all you do!
