We are a little over a month away from the math STAAR test. The students will be taking this test on Tuesday, April 23rd. Currently, we are contining to cover the 4th grade math curriculum, and at the same time we are sprialing back through all of 4th grade math with the dialy rigor and countdown to STAAR sheets. This will be the only extra preparation we do to prepare for the assessment. I explained to the kids that anything that you can prepare for you should, and the small constant preparation we are doing with the Countdown to STAAR is all most of the students will really need. We will spend the majority of our time with the remainder of the 4th grade curriculum during the 4th nine weeks. We still need to cover the important topics of measurement and probability. It is so hard to believe we are down to our last two topics. Meaurement is a very large topic, and it will take the rest on March, and will probably dip into April. We will spend the last couple of weeks before the test anazyling bar graphs and looking at possible combinations. Thanks for all your help this year. I think we have had a very successful year in 4th grade math. We are going to end our last 12 weeks strong.
