Learning is in full swing. Students have adjusted well to the rigorous schedule of fourth grade.
All students have a passion for learning. No matter what the topic, they are excited and ready for the challenge.
They are always eager to read, and love writing. What a powerful group of learners.
We have just completed our first project on Biomes. The products and presentations were fantastic. They ranged from posters and dioramas to power point presentations.
Math is a new challenge for all students, but they are facing the challenge well. We are currently working on elapsed time, mean median and mode, and will be moving into place value. For the Holidays we will be investigating pumpkins using measurement in mathematics.
Thank you parents for supporting your child in their learning adventures. I would also like to thank you for yours support and kind words.
