Reading: Our theme this week is wildlife. We will be reading "Rafting-Ready of Not" and "The Raft." We are working on new vocabulary words and making a flow chart for the setting and events in the story.
Art: The students finished their artwork of drawing like artist Pablo Picasso. Check out the hallway for their hanging artwork!
Character Development: This week we did a group activity to see how groups can peacefully work together and compromise about ideas. The students were in small groups, they had to act out a machine and present it to the class. They worked for 5 minutes to prepare a 10 second action scene. Hopefully the skills they worked on they will be able to use in their everyday lives.
Chapel Buddies: Thursday was so beautiful outside the fourth graders enjoyed playing outside with their chapel buddies.
