WES students had a visit from 2 Thunder Road racecar drivers! The kids are very excited to participate in Race to Read this year! Go readers!

1st outdoor snack this spring!

Snacks just taste better outside in the sunshine. ☀️

Heritage Projects!

4th graders have been busy researching a country from their heritage. Mark your calendars- our celebration is May 23rd from 1:15-2:30! See you there. 

Circuit Boards

Our culminating electricity project was engineering circuit boards this week. 4th graders needed to engineer the design, wiring, bulbs and test to make sure they were all closed working circuits. They all worked diligently and were independent problem solvers! 

Area and Perimeter

Students measured and taped given rectanglar dimensions. Today we will be finding the area and perimeter of the shapes! 

Ask your student the formula for finding the area and perimeter of rectangular shapes!

4 School Rules

I asked the kids to tell me exactly what they thought the 4 school rules meant. Here is what they said! 

First week back!

We've had such a fantastic first week of school. The kids quickly got back in the groove of school life and are thriving in the classroom. We just published out first piece of writing which was modeled after the book The Best Part of Me. I'll post final drafts soon. For now, check out a few of their photos!

We also discussed what they'd like to be when they grow up! We're dreaming big in 4th grade! I know it's going to be a fantastic year.

Best!
