Historical Events and Native American Research Projects and a visit from Fireman Joe






Fireman Joe came to talk to 4th grade about fire safety. We learned about smoke detectors and carbon monoxide detectors. We also learned about having a family meeting place in the event of a fire. It is important to have a meeting place in the front of the house so the firemen can learn more about the situation.


Congratulations to our kindness and grit award recipients.


We learned about different historical events and Native American tribes.

Congrats to our kindness and grit award recipients!  Thanks to all of our Special Someones for coming in for our "One Word" activity! We read the first chapter of our science reader to learn about different types of energy in our homes. We learned that energy can given off as heat, motion, light, and sound. We enjoyed playing an adding game with our 1st grade buddy after assisting them with their letters to their special someones. We started our next Thinking Classroom Activity. The kids were given a challenge to figure out how many buses are needed to get students, teachers, and parent volunteers to their field trip destination. We will finish up next week! While kids were performing at Walden, we put our creativity to the test! Kids helped make math charts for the class. Students also worked together to plan and design a zoo (complete with a slideshow)! We worked together to triple and quadruple recipes brought from home. Thank you so much to everyone for sending in recipes...

In social studies, we picked two picture/word cards and determined how they were connected to one another.  Congratulations to our kindness and grit award recipients! We investigated two different timelines. We compared and contrasted the information presented on both. We also discovered that a single source cannot capture the complete story of our history. We brainstormed "More of This" and "Less of That" for our classroom environment and expectations. We did a gallery walk to showcase our circuit unit. I'm so proud of the kids for getting the lights, fans, and buzzers to work! Congratulations to our kindness and grit award recipients! Thank you to our party parents for giving our class a great party! We put on shower caps and tossed some rings on antlers! We made our very own mini snowman with props! In art, some kids made beautiful snowflakes. We listened...
