Telemiracle

At our assembly last week, Mr. Beatty announced that our school raised over 2000 dollars for Telemiracle! Our classroom was proud to be recognized as one that raised over 100 dollars. Thank you for your donations!

Exciting Happenings in Grade 4!

On Friday, the students earned a Doughnut Party in the afternoon! A selected group of students were chosen to log their reading at home. With some incentives in place, they were able to read over 70 books/chapters at home and earned us the doughnuts. We will keep up the class reward system in March and see how much we can read with a full month of school!

Today, the students showed their Social Studies plays from a script that they wrote based on readings we had done in class. We all enjoyed watching their performance, and had a few laughs as well.

Tomorrow, we start swimming lessons! The students are VERY excited to get started.
