The last week and half has flown by! We finished the multiplication unit and took our test. We will be working o decimals and division next week. We are learning about Mexico and finishing the unit on heredity in Science. In Social Studies we had a presentation on Native Americans of the Northeast, presented by Mrs. Silvia of the Haffenreffer Museum from Brown University. Mrs. Silvia is our Anthropologist in Residence. We will have four "in school field trips with her this year as a result of a PCC Grant that was written by the 4th grade teachers. Thanks PCC! Pictures to follow!
We created "Thankful wreaths," in writer's workshop and created a "Thankful Tree," as part of Open Circle. The Thanksgiving speeches were well done and everyone did a great job. Chris and Anna were the first boy and girl to give their speeches and you can see the video of the speech below.
Black and White Day was a success! Everyone was dressed in black and white! Students brought in a variety of black and white snacks, stuffed animals and created Polar art projects. We beat Mrs. Merten's class in Win, lose, or draw. :) We enjoyed March of the Penguins and did great on the book test.
Have a wonderful holiday and Happy Thanksgiving!
Mrs. Williams
