Every day I play music to call the students to Morning Meeting and everyday they head to the red rug dancing. I love to see how they start their day in this cheerful way. I'm telling you, this group is fun. And, they are just as enthusiastic about learning as they are about dancing! I love them! And I count my lucky stars everyday to have this year with such a fun, interested and loving crew....

ROCK OF AGES!
On Halloween, the fourth grade ventured to Barre, Vermont to see the quarry where much of Vermont's granite is mined. Despite a chilly, damp and cloudy morning, we managed to have a great time together and learned lots! Fourth graders were inquisitive, interested and polite. Their behavior was exemplary and made the fourth grade teachers proud. Many thanks to all our wonderful chaperones for their help to make this first field trip a success!
4B Earns 25 Bee Cells!
4B chose to celebrate their first 25 bee cell recognitions for students using habits of mind by throwing a "Trick or Treat" party the day before Halloween. Students enjoyed yummy snacks together while watching other students perform tricks and tell riddles. A simple and very fun way to celebrate being the best we can be!
FOUR WINDS- Spiders
Many thanks to Gretchen Pepper and her 4th grader who taught the 4B class all about spiders and their adaptations. Students enjoyed a spider puppet show, looking at live, captured spiders, building the anatomy of a spider, and a game that gave an arachnid web sensory experience! Four Winds teaches us all! Thanks Gretchen!
More Engineering with Mrs. Koier
A few weeks ago, we had our last engineering session with Mrs. Koier. Students were able to test, revise and re test our chosen bridge site. Hands on learning at its finest! Thank you Mrs. Koier for a wonderful engineering unit!
