Wind in the STEM lab - Leah's Post

In the STEM lab we are learning about how wind changes the earths crust. In this picture, we are blowing through straws and trying different forces of wind on different types of earth coverings. We had to predict what would happen to the coverings which were sand and beans and rice.

GEMS Shadow Puppets - Leah's Post

On Friday our class went to see the 3rd and 4th grades shadow puppet shows. Each puppet show had a theme. One theme was life cycle, another was famous Vermonters, another was the five senses, another was my family vacation to Vermont and practice makes perfect. It was very FUN!

Jane Goodall by Mattie Lewis

 

This week we learned about Jane Goodall. We learned that she helped the chimpanzees and that she made a difference in our world. She studied them to see how they are alike to humans. We learned that she taught humans how to plant fast growing trees so they would not cut down the chimp's trees. Jane Goodall said, "Every individual matters. Every individual has a role to play. Every individual makes a difference. And we have a choice: What sort of difference do we want to make?"

Community Workers - Q's Blog Post

Our class did a project and we learned about community helpers and mine was a judge.  A judge provides a service. I gave him a gavel!

Non Fiction Text Features

This past week the students learned about non-fiction text features.  We found that they help us navigate a book and learn more about a specific question we may have. In the upcoming weeks, the students will use what they learned about non-fiction books to help them research an individual that has made a difference in our world!

Multiplication and Arrays

In math, the class is learning about multiplication. Yesterday we played a game where the students rolled a die twice to make a number of columns and rows in an array. Then they labeled the array with the matching multiplication problem and product!
