Hi everyone,
We decided to section off a little part of our Meeting Area to showcase pictures of our pets. If you want to, please bring in one picture of your pet to add to the showcase.
In Social Studies we are continuing to study the South and are focusing on the Civil Rights period. We have been assigned random topics to study within our own own classrooms. Our class is studying the following:
Grace: Freedom Riders
Jenna: Ruby Bridges
Aidan: Little Rock Nine
Sam: Thurgood Marshall
Alex: Civil Rights Act of 1964
Nathan: Opposition to the Civil Rights Act
Sammy: Montgomery Bus Boycott
We are researching these topics and gaining more knowledge about them within our own classrooms. On Tuesday we will meet back within our mixed-4th grade classes and find out who our partner or partners are that studied similar topics. Together we will come up with a way to present this information to our classmates - maybe via iMovie, Power Point, or a skit.
Coming Up

Thursday, February 4th - Pizza and Game Night 2010 (more information to come)
Friday, February 19th (tentative) - 4th grade Biography Breakfast. Parents invited! More information to come.
