Music Recorders
The fourth graders will be starting to use recorders in music soon. They can buy the recorders from school for $3. If you already have one around the house the students can bring them in too. Recorder or recorder money should be turned in by this Friday, January 29. Many students have already done this.
Units of Measure
In math we are getting into Unit 5, which is the units of measure for the metric system. We started with length, then volume, and mass. The kids are seeing there is a pattern with the metric system that stays the same even as we measure new objects. I have included a chart that shows the prefix for each conversion as well.
Google Login
In computers the students have been working with their Google accounts, which are new to them. We started with e-mail and are now working with Google Drive and Google Docs. These Google tools will allow them to do school work very easily next year with an Internet connection.
To log into their google account they put in their first and last name with no space along with @students.igs.k12.wi.us. An example would be janedoe@students.igs.k12.wi.us. Then they use the same password they use at school to login.
