Welcome to Mrs. Venable's 4th Grade Webpage

11/25/25

Welcome back to our page!

Thank you for the rich conversations and insight at our conferences.  It is always nice to touch base and share our "glows" and "grows" with you all.  I hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving!

Next week:

We will be taking our Literature Summative on Tuesday and our Outcome on Thursday. That will wrap up our fiction unit and the following week, we will kick off nonfiction with text structure.  On Monday, I will be sharing the five titles that will be our book club choices.  Each student will choose a book, and read. We will be setting up a purpose for reading and a calendar of reading assignments which will be kept in a book bag, along with the novel. This will be coming home on most days to complete assignments. Please remind your child to read and return the book daily.  Every Friday, students will have a chance to meet with their small groups, share their thinking through sticky notes, and complete a group activity. In writing, we will be working on the FINE- base along with a study on verbs. Students will complete reader's response prompts in their journals throughout the week.

Next week:

Tuesday - Hot lunch; Library

Thursday - Theme: "Holiday Spirit"

Friday- Lunch Bunch for those who participated; invites went home last week

Great job everyone!  Have a nice weekend!
