Math:
Today in math we explored volume and how much space items  take up in the room. Students had time to work together using small cubes and different strategies to explore how much volume certain items take up in class. Textbook work was assigned on page 212 #1, 2 a and d, and #6 and in the workbook on page 83 and 84.

Unit of Inquiry:
Today in U.O.I students watched a video about the parts of the eye and the parts of the ear for light and sound and they had to follow along while labeling a worksheet with a diagram of the eye and ear so that we can all be familiar with the different parts of the body that help us to see and hear things around us. Students also had a chance to conduct the first experiment in this unit. We were divided up into 4 groups and given flashlights to go around the school looking for items that are Opaque, Translucent or Transparent.

Covid -19 Updates  Hello and Good Morning Everyone, As you are now aware, St. Jude’s Academy will be closed for the next two weeks due to COVID-19. As we try to alleviate the spread of the virus, we understand that situations such as these can make things a little more unpredictable than we would like them to be.

In response to COVID-19 we are actively working to ensure the health and safety of everyone while continuing to educate and support our students. We want to ensure that our students will not be impacted by the unfolding events. We will continue to provide education to our students via an online classroom set up after March Break and up until April 5, 2020. Our school building is closed, but education will continue in an online format.   The grade 4 team will post our daily blogs by 9 am.

Good afternoon SJA parents Today the grade 4s began their Data Management Assignment. They conducted a survey about the religious demographic of students and teachers in grades 1-5. For this assignment, the grade 4s are being challenged to collect data, create graphs, and interpret their findings using concepts and terminology learned throughout the unit. This is a two day assignment, so the grade 4s will have the opportunity to complete their assignment tomorrow.  Today in language   the grade 4s will continued to work on their speeches. Some students have begun their third paragraph (subtopic 2).
