We now come to the end of our beginning, the first quarter in 4th grade at Archway Trivium East. It has been an awfully exciting beginning, and even in this time every one of us has grown a lot. As we wrap up our opening act it is always a good idea to review how things went. Did we do our best? How can we improve? What comes next? These questions and more can help focus us as we enter into a new chapter in our 4th grade adventure.

This Week
In History we will be learning about city life in the Middle Ages and the urban environments that began to spring up across Europe. What was it like to live in a Medieval city? We shall discuss everything from the governments to the guilds, from the street design to the smells might one encounter on a jaunt through London or Paris.
In Literature we will be reading the tragic story of Tristram and Isault. You may see some weepy students this week as this is King Arthur's equivalent to Romeo and Juliet except with more dragons.
In Writing we will continue learning about describers, this week our focus will be adverbs. Adverbs allow us to not just learn, but learn well. They are essential to describing our actions and even our very being.
I hope you and your students enjoy the final week of our quarter!
Best,
Mr. Ohbayashi
