Fall Break and CRA



Dear Parent(s),




The 4th grade students will have their first Constructed Response Assessment the Tuesday we return from Fall Break. The entire topic of the CRAs (there will be 3) is fractions. As you know, we have been working on fractions this week, and we will continue to do so when we return. I have found some CRA questions that will be similar to what the students will have on their first assessment. There are some challenging questions. I would like for the children to work on them over the break so that they have more practice. I prefer to set them up for success. So, I ask that these questions be worked on and completed by the Tuesday, October 22nd after we return from Fall Break. They will be sent home in the Homefun folders tomorrow if you would like to work them over Fall Break. I will not send home Friday folders this week.



Respectfully,

Ms. Mitchell
