Fourth Grade News

Fourth Graders enjoyed another busy week! We began with our Community Meeting on Tuesday, where our mantra was "We are Family!". This mantra was important this week as we prepared to share our learning with families at Open House. We talked about how we are a fourth grade family as well.

Fourth Graders also enjoyed some exciting science activities this week. On Wednesday students created terrariums. Students will observe their terrariums daily to see if they can find evidence of the water cycle happening within. 









In Project Based Learning this Friday students began their weather station challenge. Students are challenged to work in collaborative groups to design and build a weather station that measures two different weather phenomena such as rainfall, temperature, humidity, air pressure, wind direction, or wind speed. Students will use their knowledge of the weather tools learned in class to complete this project in the coming weeks. Students will then get to put their weather station to the test, and collect data about the weather.
