Dear Parents,
Welcome back! I hope you had a wonderful Spring Break with your students. We are now entering the final quarter of their 4th grade year at Archway Trivium East. This quarter will contain several milestones for them. They will finish their poem Paul Revere's Ride, they will begin to actually write summaries and short essays in class, and they will take their AZ Merit exams. My advice for approaching standardized tests is not to stress your students too much. We want to avoid the anxiety that can distract and overwhelm our students. We are preparing them, they will be successful.
This Week
1) In History we will be talking about the principles of forming a good government and then trying to create one as a class.
2) In Reading we will be continuing to read the Wizard of Oz. As always it is a huge benefit to have your student read to you if you can.
3) In Writing we will be continuing to memorize Paul Revere's Ride and learning the fundamentals of writing a short essay.
Thanks so much for your time and effort!
Best,
Mr. Ohbayashi
