Yes, I have not been doing a very good job keeping this up to date lately.  My sincere apologies.  So what's new with 4k?  We just finished up Unit 2 in math.  Many of you may be seeing a new method for multiplication called the box method.  This seems to work for many students and allows them to build that confidence that is so important for continued success.  Brand new books for reading, I attempted to find some books that kids would love to read, fingers are crossed. Student council elections are this Friday 11/13/09 at 8:30.

This week we will be focusing on completing some district assessments in math, reading, and writing.  Please help us out by making sure children have a great nights sleep, and a hearty healthy breakfast.  Also be looking for your Parent Teacher Conference sheets coming home Monday 10/26/09.  Our first trimester is nearly complete time flies when you're having fun.

What a week as many of you know I was out a good part of the week taking care of a sick family.  As of right now I have not caught it knock on wood.  This week we pushed ahead with Wyoming History learning about buffalo hunts, and counting coupe.  We finished unit one in math and the test scores were great!!  Reading groups are going well  and the students have mastered writing good summaries and making text connections.  Please keep working on math facts at home, as we progress with unit two this will be a skill called upon frequently.  Have a great weekend everyone.

Medicine Lodge Creek was an amazing experience.  Check out the photos on our main page.  This week was a great week.  We learned about early Native Americans, and how they hunted.  Took our unit one math post assessment and the kids did great. We started some new books in reading and have been working on making some different text connections.

Another week down and another week of learning.  The Kids were great this week, I mean AMAZING!!  We covered hook sentences in writing, arrays in math, Clovis and Folsom cultures in social studies, and with the time left read Moho Wat.  Parents I want to take the kids on some field trips perhaps to Medicine Lodge Creek rock art site, or maybe to the Legend Rock site.  Please email me if you have other suggestions or have some information about the above mentioned sites.  For those of you who missed the picnic last night what a great time it was.
  Thanks, Mr.Krubeck

We are off and running, what a great class I have this year.  Some news you can use.  Moho Wat is our current class book and the kids seem to really like it.  This is a historical fiction piece and the setting for this story is Yellowstone Park.  Back to school picnic will be held Thursday, September 10, 5:30 PM at Hugh Smith Park. Please if you have any questions, concerns, or comments feel free to email me
