Social Studies Site

http://bensguide.gpo.gov/

Love this site for my 5th graders when we're studying the constitution, branches of government, and other related facts.  It's real easy to make a webquest for a 2 day computer class.

Valentine's Party

This not what the party in my room looks like...candy, sugar, and lively games!  Let your imagination paint the real picture.... one more hour!

What a Week...

We had an early out last week because of snow...a late start the next day because of cold temperatures...and then I had a sick day---darn flu bug. 

This week finds my school hosting the spelling bee.  It's always fun to see such a lively group of smart, young spellers!

Book Project

It's that time again for the biography book project.  Students read a biography, make a timeline, and give a short 1-2 minute speech, where they are that person.  I always love this project.

Here's the YouTube link if you like to see who visited the 4th grade room this past week.

My only regret is that I would have liked to record the speeches, but my skills weren't very good and so the iMovie is just a slideshow.

ENJOY!
