Smoke Trailer
The Fire Department came to talk to us about fire safety. We learned how to prevent fires within our homes and how to safely exit a home if a fire does start. We practiced doing this in a trailer that simulates a real fire.

House Building Challenge
The students have started a new project in math. They are architects and building a new house for Mrs. Jones. She has very specific requests on the total square footage of her house and what rooms she wants included. They are coming up with house plans and making sure the square footage of their rooms is appropriate. Stay tuned to see what they come up with!

Don't Be a Monster
The 4th grade students went to an assembly titled "Don't Be A Monster"
It discussed bullying and how common it has become. We learned ways to stand up to bullies and help others who are being bullied. Then we got to meet the star of the assembly, Frank.

Weldon Spring Field Trip
We had such a fun time on our field trip to Weldon Spring. We learned about the history of the site and got to climb the rock mountain. We also discussed food chains and different types of soil. It was a perfect kickoff to our Life Science Unit.

Regions of the US
We got into groups and researched different regions of the United States. We learned about the states and capitals included in each region, bodies of water, geographic features, important landmarks, etc. After presenting our information to the class, we did a gallery walk to view other groups posters and wrote down important information.
