Spring Break

I've decided to allow one student each week to update the blog.  I though you all might enjoy hearing what they thought about the week at school.   (Don't worry I'll still get my two cents in)

This week is in Mrs. Jones's class, we learned about probability in math. To help us understand how probability works, we did the March Madness bracket by pulling different colored tiles out of a brown bag. We all enjoyed doing it. Afterwards, we all got to do a bracket of our own, if we wanted to. It was very fun, at least in my opinion.

   In science we are learning about weather. We learned the four parts of  the water cycle. To help us remember, we learned three songs. We also learned about clouds. Though there are so many types, we only learned about stratus, cumulonimbus, cumulus, and cirrus.

     For reading, we are reading There's a Boy in the Girls Bathroom. It is all about a boy named Bradley who met a boy named Jeff. They were complete opposites, until  Bradley was hit by a girl. Jeff started acting like Bradley and Bradley acted like Jeff.
   
       We also have continued to read our Danger Along the Ohio book. We have gotten two chapters done this week and are excited to read chapter 4 after spring break.
   
    In social studies, we learned about the French explore Robert La Salle and British explore George Croghan. We all agree the French were nicer to the Indians than the British.

     As you know, the past week we did our K.M.E 2013 Fourth Grade wax museum. Mrs. Jones went around and took pictures of all her students. Then she taped us doing our speech on her I pad. She put our picture and the taping of our speech on a QR code so anybody can listen to us and see our picture.   Come check it out at school in the main hallway.

Mrs. Jones also says many students need to replenish their supplies.  They need colored pencils the most!
