Easter 2016!

Easter is an exciting time of year at our school! As students prepare for this day during Lent- we try to incorporate some fun activities in fourth grade. 

Fourth Graders created a clay tomb for Jesus- along with the Bible quote:

 "He is not here, HE has RISEN as He said"- Matthew 28:6. 

The students left the tomb empty- because Jesus has risen. 

Math Easter Egg Hunt ?????

We went on an unusual Easter egg hunt...instead of the eggs being fulled with candy- they were filled with challenging math problems! 

Students had to first find the eggs- and then answer the questions inside! They recorded their answers on a chart. When time was up- I calculated the answers. The students who answered the most questions correctly get a chocolate rabbit! Everyone got a treat for participating- and it was a great review!

Happy St. Patrick's Day! 

We created Celtic Crosses in honor of the patron saint of today...St. Patrick of Ireland. 

Fourth Graders Performed Readers Theater Today!

A few of our students performed an Irish skit for our class today! Great work girls! 

Civil War Time Lines

Students learned about significant events during the Civil War. They created time lines in small groups. 

St. Jude Pep Rally!

Students cheered for their fellow students or teachers at our annual pep rally. Teachers played the eighth grade in a basketball game.

Beautiful Weather= Great Excuse to Read Our Chapter Book "James and the Giant Peach" Outside!
