Hi My daughter is a 4th grader and is having trouble reading. She is at a 2nd grade level. Her reading comp. Is also low. Is there anything I can do to help her read more fluent as well help with the comp.
I'm a fourth grade math teacher and I'm way behind on the standards. We started with geometry, then moved into place value, etc,, and are just now going into Multiplication. Is there anyone out there in the same boat as me?! I know I'm not going to get it all taught and it is really stressing me out!
Here are the coming week's writing prompts and discussion starters. Consider using them to add interest and information to newsletters and morning announcements.

"I hear many people talk about tolerance and how we must learn to be tolerant toward those who are different from us. When we tolerate something, we put up with it temporarily until it is gone. We tolerate a toothache, back pain, and loud music coming from a neighbor’s house. Why would we ever put what we do with children in the same category? Instead, we should celebrate the differences of our children."
