Grade 4's are going on a mission!


Our grade 4 class is going on an important mission.  We are going to further explore the different types of book genres we have been learning about this week.

The 'NAME THAT GENRE' game will ask you a series of multiple choice questions and you will choose which genre you think best describes what the question is asking.  You may click on the link below to access the genre game.  Have fun grade four's!!!

NAME THAT GENRE 

Let's PLAY: PLACE THAT VALUE!!!

Ok grade four's, since we've been learning about place value in math class, I found this really cool place value game that'll help us understand place value better by practicing reading and writing whole numbers in standard and word form.  Click below to find the game:
