Week of Oct. 13, 2014

HHave you watched our Animoto we posted on Monday? It was so fun! We went on a scavenger hunt and wrote poems about how it feels to belong in fourth grade.

Owen was our guest reader on Tuesday. We gathered some quotes from the book.

Quotes we like from our read aloud text;

"The most powerful tool of the scientist is observation" Pg. 47

" Scientists never give up. They keep trying because they believe in the possible."

"Average people just give up at the obstacles we face every day. Scientist fail again and again and again sometimes our whole lives but we don't give up because we want to solve the puzzle."

We just had a mystery skype!!!!! Our new friends are in New Jersey!

Our Vermont maps are almost complete! Next week we will focus on understanding where the 14 counties are located and why each has a shire town. Do you know?

Quotes from trip to mt.philo;

You can do it!

Have you broken a sweat yet mrs.Randall?

We learned about how to join in. Here are some tips-stand nearby, watch and listen. Give a compliment, ask a question, or offer help. Assertively ask to join in.

This is an example of some groups practicing.

Did you know that some of us are programming during math menu? Ask us to show you what we've created on Khan Academy!!

Some of us are using an app called Educreations to create how to videos in math!

Ask us about our avatars! We earn them when we persevere on challenging math concepts on Khan Academy. This is what Adain just earned! He was very excited! :)

Have a great long weekend! See you Monday!

Adah and Isabelle
