This week, we had tons of fun. In book club, some of us finished our original books. When we finished our first book, we started reading another book called The Kid in the Red Jacket. It is a very funny book, and we all are enjoying it very much. Today, a couple of kids were reading on the couch, and it turned into a reading slumber party. We are all having a great time reading different books in groups. The books are all great to read.

Game Day January 2016

This week we had three tests. We had a Social Studies test on Tuesday, Wordly Wise on Wednesday,  and on Thursday, we had a math test.  We began studying the skeleton in science.  We learned the different bones in the skeleton.  We play Simon Says with the bones of the body.  In social studies we began learning about the Revolutionary War.
On Friday,we had a fourth grader as principal of the day.  We had pajama day and game day.  We also had some fun with our star partners.

This week was very fun.  In reading we started our book club.  We are reading The House of Dies Drear. The Whipping Boy, The Bridge to Terabithia, and Because of Winn Dixie.   It was a very fun and exciting to start these books!  In art class we made a winter scene with a cardinal and four birch trees.  We are learning about the body in science class, starting with the circulatory system.  In social studies we had a test today on the middle colonies.  We hope everyone did well on the test.

The basketball season is underway.  The girls have a tournament this weekend. The boys' teams have tournaments as well.  Good luck to our athletes!
